The weather was still lively on the final full day. Watching the storms pass by the Isles always provides a sense of vulnerability of how exposed the archipelago is to the weather systems that power along the south-west corridor.

Highlights of the day featured a
Common Redstart along the Penninis Trail still present from the day before. The long-staying
Red-backed Shrike was also in the same area, flying from the trail and later viewable from the coastal path near the Old Town.
Two
Yellow-browed Warbler were noted, one in the dump clump where the
Red-breasted Flycatcher was giving typically fleeting views with the other by the Cricket pitch.
A
Chiffchaff at the dump clump, two
Kestrel, and 56
Herring Gull on Porthcressa were other noteworthy sightings.
