Very quiet on the land with just 15 Sand Martins and five Yellow Wagtails passing overhead a nd a Willow Warbler in the bushes. Seawatching produced nine Mediterranean Gulls, two juvenile Yellow-legged Gulls and two Manx Shearwaters.

Single Grey and Common Seals were feeding offshore and a Brown Hare was seen on the land.

The presumed migrant pyralid moth Acrobasis tumidana was trapped overnight.
