Seawatching during the morning saw a Great Skua, 10 Great Northern and two Red-throated Diver south from the seawall along with 130+ Gannet and 90 Kittiwake. The same windy conditions made birding the bushes difficult although two Chiffchaff and the Treecreeper were still present by the First Pond and three Cirl Bunting were behind the hide. In the estuary the Slavonian Grebe was off Cockwood and counts included 1050 Dunlin, 875 Oystercatcher, 313 Teal, 270 Wigeon, 251 Brent Geese, 114 Grey Plover, 92 Great Black-backed Gull, 50 Shelduck, 30 Knot and 11 Sanderling.
