It was a day of moderate/strong west-north-westerly winds and generally overcast skies. During the seawatch, seven Manx Shearwaters were logged flying past, with six Canada Goose a typical early summer record.
A Little Egret visited a pond at South Landing, whilst the day’s highlight related to an Osprey that drifted south over South Dykes; it had earlier flown south over Filey, before heading over Bempton Cliffs. A Cuckoo also frequented the Old Fall area.
West of the Dykes, single Mediterranean Gull and Short-eared Owl were recorded at Bempton Cliffs RSPB.
