Moderate/strong south-easterly winds featured throughout a day that started with sunny intervals and ended with rain arriving at dusk. Seawatching was rewarded with seven Shelduck, eight Dunlin, 13 Knot, 16 Redshank, a Greenshank and one Pomarine Skua flying south. The headland itself was quiet, although Thornwick Pools attracted seven Teal, three Dunlin, a Greenshank and a Grey Wagtail. After a day’s absence, the Black-browed Albatross returned to RSPB Bempton Cliffs during the afternoon and showed well once again from the Staple Newk viewing platform.
