Friday 4th March

Heavy rain persisted throughout the day, with light easterly winds. As a consequence of the poor weather conditions, few reports were received.

There was no sign of the Bittern at Thornwick, though the Teal count remained unchanged at 21. A brief seawatch during the morning yeilded 3 Red-throated Divers, 69 Fulmar and 138 Gannet.
