A relatively overcast day, with sunny intervals and occasional showers, a moderate north-easterly wind and temperatures reaching six degrees C. Highlights of the morning swatch included two Velvet Scoters heading south, with two Blue Fulmars, 27 Gannets and 481 Kittiwakes moving north. Five Long-tailed Ducks remained off South Dykes, where four Sanderlings and the Black Redstart remained on the beach and two Nuthatch frequented the wooded ravine.
