Weather-wise, our tale of woe continued, with the strength of the wind being today's blight. An unseen
Serin in song in a birder's garden at Southwell frustrated subsequent searchers by turning as inaudible as it had been invisible. The day's other new arrivals on the land were exceedingly few and included by way of interest just 2
White Wagtails at Sweethill and singles of
Ring Ouzel at the Obs and
Fieldfare at Fancy's Farm. The sea provided some early interest, with 34
Sandwich Terns, 10
Red-throated Divers and singles of
Great Skua and
Arctic Skua through off the Bill.
