A cooler, breezier day saw little change in the day's species list, however the gusts did encourage a little more movement on the sea with 13 Balearic Shearwaters, 2 Arctic Skuas and 2 Yellow-legged Gulls the best of the bunch; routine gull passage also continued with Lesser Black-backed Gulls beginning to get more conspicuous among the now ubiquitous Mediterranean Gulls. The land was windswept and quiet but a slack handful of Willow Warblers, Sedge Warblers, Blackcaps and a fly-over Yellow Wagtail made up the migrant tallies for the day. Ferrybridge continued its recent form with singles of Whimbrel and Sanderling, 14 Ringed Plovers and 24 Dunlin.
