A sunny morning with light south-west winds was followed by overcast skies and blustery southerlies, with a high of 21 degrees C. Passerine interest included two Goldcrests, a Pied Flycatcher, two Tree Pipits, 15 Yellow Wagtails, a Grey Wagtail and five Siskin. Single Bonxie and Arctic Skua lingered off the headland, 12 Ringed Plovers were at South Landing, while a Hobby graced the skies above Croft’s Hill.
