Another Marsh Warbler made landfall, with a singing male located in thick umbellifer cover immediately next to the lighthouse mid-morning and remained in situ until the evening. Quite how many Bee-eaters visited the headland during the day was difficult to determine: one flew north-west over RSPB Bempton Cliffs at 0640hrs and a single called twice heading south over the Lighthouse at 1130hrs. Three Mute Swans flew north low over Thornwick, whilst a Hobby flew north over Hartendale early afternoon. Otherwise migrant passerines were decidedly scarce, with a Chiffchaff, one Garden Warbler, a female Black Redstart, one Grey Wagtail, a White Wagtail and two Siskins on the outer head. The Avocet remained at Thornwick Pools, whilst four Dunlin and five Ringed Plover also visited the remaining freshwater.
