A light southerly wind again changed into a moderate south-easterly as the temperature reached 21 degrees C in sunny conditions. During the seawatch, 27 Common Scoters flew north, eight Curlew went south, 12 Sandwich Terns flew north and single Common Terns headed north and south.

Thornwick Pools attracted a Little Ringed Plover and a Green Sandpiper. A Grasshopper Warbler was singing near Oceanview, where there were three Siskins and a Coal Tit.
