A calm, sunny start to the day proved deceiving, with strong southerly winds and rain arriving later; temperatures only increased from -3 degrees C at dawn to 3 degrees C by mid-afternoon. An adult Glaucous Gull flew north on a seawatch that also produced a lone Goldeneye, a Great Crested Grebe and two Northern Herring Gulls heading south. A Mute Swan re-appeared at Thornwick Lakes, where a Tufted Duck and two Goldeneye remained; 176 Teal were on nearby Thornwick Pools along with another Tufted Duck. A Velvet Scoter flew west past South Landing, while a Great Northern Diver cut the headland at the same location and flew north over the village. The Siberian Chiffchaff also re-appeared at Thornwick.
