A light/moderate north-easterly wind, squally showers and temperatures that reached four degrees C. During the morning seawatch, a Blue Fulmar, five Eiders and three Velvet Scoters flew north. Four Long-tailed Ducks lingered off South Dykes, a Great Northern Diver off South Landing, whilst a Woodcock was flushed from Old Fall. Passerine records included three Fieldfare, 12 Redwing and two Black Redstarts (Fog Station & South Dykes).
