27th July 2016

Light/moderate south-westerly winds switched to north-westerlies later, once a band of light rain had moved through. During the seawatch, four Teal flew south, 99 Common Scoter headed north, whilst 17 Redshank, ten Dunlin, 70 Sandwich Terns, 20 Common Terns and two Arctic Skuas flew south.

Two Eider were off South Landing/South Dykes, with 12 Whimbel at the former and an adult Mediterranean Gull at the latter location, whilst 50 Turnstone were at Sewerby.
