Light easterly winds, with an overcast morning before the sun broke through in the afternoon; classic drift conditions and migrants started to arrive in the afternoon. Seawatching was relatively quiet, although a juvenile Yellow-legged Gull flew south. Two juvenile Caspian Gulls were present on a field near the Lighthouse late morning. The flashes near Old Fall attracted a Ruff, two Green Sandpipers, five Greenshank, a Ringed Plover and a Dunlin, whilst the juvenile Greenshank remained on Thornwick Pool.
Common Buzzards were on the move this morning, with a flock of eight birds drifting west over the Headland and a single bird doing the same. Passerines included 22 Whinchats (including one at Buckton), ten Pied Flycatchers (one at Buckton) and two Redstarts.
