Another breezy start to the day quickly deteriorated into torrential rain and very poor visibility, making it impossible to see anything. However, a few birds were seen prior to the bad weather arriving, mostly offshore including, 38 Brent Geese, 2 Gadwall, 5 Common gull and 1 Shelduck south, and 2 Gannet north, whilst 2 Mediterranean Gulls and 2 Pintail were seemingly lost and looking for directions. On site, 2 Wheatear, 3 Grey Wagtail and 4 Chaffinch was the best we could muster in the conditions.

Only 2 birds were ringed, 1 each of Grey Wagtail and Robin.
