The day started with moderate east-south-easterly winds, heavy rain followed by foggy conditions. The wind switched to strong south-south-westerlies and sunny intervals then featured whilst temperatures reached 16 degrees C. The highlight of the seawatch were nine Eiders flying south and a pair of Tufted Ducks toured the Outer Head.
A Hobby flew west over Thornwick Pool, where there were also eight Dunlin, two Ringed Plovers, one Snipe and a Redshank, together with the Barnacle Goose and single White and Yellow Wagtails. A scattering of passerine migrants were found before the wind picked up, including six Wheatear near the Fog Station, three Whinchats and single Garden Warbler and Redstart.
