The morning’s weather consisted of strong south-south-westerly winds and persistent rain, with clearing skies later when temperatures peaked at seven degrees C. A Long-tailed Duck flying south was the highlight of the morning seawatch. Thornwick Lakes attracted a Mute Swan, two Tufted Ducks and two Goldeneyes, while 81 Teal and two Woodcock were at nearby Thornwick Pools. Three Short-eared Owls continued to entertain at RSPB Bempton Cliffs.
