On the headland, wildfowl interest was provided by 16 Wigeon and 54 Teal, whilst a Red-necked Grebe was off South Landing. Three Water Rails were still present, along with two Woodcock, whilst a search of North Marsh and other wetlands located five Jack Snipe and 41 Snipe. Fields near North Dykes continued to attract a lone Richard’s Pipit, with three Corn Buntings nearby. A hybrid Lanner x Peregrine cross sporting jesses was photographed along the cliff top north of Thornwick.
