A radiant day, almost entirely undarkened by any clouds throughout was unencumbered by birds until the evening when two Rosy Starlings pitched up in the hedges behind Southwell.

The sea was a little busier, including singles of Great Northern Diver, Balearic Shearwater and Arctic Skua through off the Bill.
