Birding was rather slow with very little migration; a Curlew was on the South End, four Starlings were at Ty Pellaf and a Lesser Redpoll went over Pen Cristin. 

During the afternoon seven adult Fulmars were caught, this included two birds already ringed, one ringed in the same site in 2022 and another from 2006 which was not ringed on the Island! Also ringed was the last few auk chicks with many now fledged.
