Strong south-south-easterly winds were a feature of a day with sunny intervals and temperatures reaching 12 degrees C. During the seawatch, eight Little Gulls and an Arctic Tern flew south, with a further four Little Gulls lingering offshore.
The day’s highlight was a Hume’s Warbler located in private gardens on the outer head; unfortunately it proved elusive and failed to show after the initial find. Other sightings included three Pink-footed Geese with the Greylag flock, 12 Wigeon, 31 Teal, two Water Rails, two Woodcock, 14 Snipe and a Short-eared Owl (North Landing). Passerine interest involved 35 Goldcrest, three Chiffchaff, one Siberian Chiffchaff (Old Fall) and three Snow Buntings (Golf Course).
