It was a day of variable, but light winds, sunny intervals and temperatures reaching 18 degrees C. A tally of 48 Manx Shearwaters flew north during the morning, with three Gadwall, two Red-throated Divers, 11 Sandwich Terns and two Common Terns also recorded. Elsewhere, a Mediterranean Gull flew past South Dykes and a juvenile Dunlin dropped in at Thornwick Pools. The Black-browed Albatross loafed on the sea between North Dykes and North Landing, then returning to the cliffs before heading out to sea. Also remaining, the Red-tailed Shrike continued its residence at Wandale Farm.
