Moderate/strong winds from a south-easterly to a southerly direction during a day of sunny intervals and temperatures peaking at ten degrees C. Single Goosander and sanderling south on the morning’s seawatch were noteworthy, with thousands of auks flying past the headland and resting on the water. A White Wagtail on the Golf Course was early, with two Scandinavian Rock Pipits at the same location. The three Shore Larks re-appeared in cliff top stubble at Buckton, where at least three Lapland Buntings remained.
