A mostly cloudy day, with a brisk easterly wind and temperatures of 9 degrees C.
Perhaps surprisingly with the wind direction, the seawatch was steady; the main highlights being six Common Scoter south and 14 north, 33 Fulmar north, 35 Common Gull south, 27 Great Black-backed Gull south, a single Sandwich Tern north and 19 Puffin south (68 north).
A Pink-footed Goose, nine Teal and two Tufted Duck frequented North Marsh, with a Whimbrel nearby. Migrants included a Long-eared Owl near the Lighthouse, 14 Goldcrest, a Firecrest at South Landing car-park, 14 Chiffchaff, an acredula-type Willow Warbler, two Blackcap, a Lesser Whitethroat (North Landing) and a White Wagtail. The two Richard’s Pipits remained at North Landing.
