A sunny day, with moderate north-westerly winds slackening during the afternoon. Two Brent Geese remained at North Marsh, a Red Kite drifted east over North Landing and a lone Woodcock lingered.
Three Firecrests were present: at South Landing, Thornwick Pools and on the edge of the Gorse Field, whilst two Hawfinches frequented trees on the eastern fringes of South Landing early morning. Other migrants included the year’s first Sand Martin, a White Wagtail, 15 Chiffchaffs, two Blackcaps, five Brambling and three Siskin.
West of the Dykes, RSPB Bempton Cliffs hosted a Short-eared Owl and the Great Grey Shrike that made a re-appearance late afternoon. The Firecrest was also still present at Buckton.
