Winds remained light throughout a day that featured sunny spells and prolonged periods of overcast skies. Seawatching highlights included a Grey Plover flying south, single summer-plumaged adult Mediterranean and Little Gulls also south, and two Sandwich Terns moving north.
Eighty Pink-footed Geese flew north in the morning, whilst two Shoveler at North Marsh were new arrivals. The day’s highlight was the discovery of a Raven on the Outer Head early morning; after lingering south of the Lighthouse it flew west. Continuing the corvid theme, one Hooded Crow lingered on fields between South Landing and Old Fall. The Firecrest remained along the ‘motorway’ south of the Lighthouse and other sightings included 15 Redwing, a Scandinavian Rock Pipit and a White Wagtail.
West of the Dykes, a Willow Warbler was located at Buckton.
