Weather was sunny until mid-afternoon when skies became overcast. Wind was a light north-westerly.
Highlight of the day was a Bittern, found at Thornwick Pools during mid morning; it then slinked off into the reedbed by the Sand Martin bank before reappearing late afternoon. This represented only the third record for the outer head. Also on the land, the two Richards Pipits remained in the usual field east of North Landing and a total of 21 Teal were counted.
The seawatch produced a single intermedius Lesser Black-backed Gull, six Red-throated Diver, 251 Fulmar, nine Common Scoter, 550 Kittiwake and 75 Shag.
