Crested tit toppmeis - a Skogsøy resident
Elsewhere in Øygarden the best of the rest included Mistle Thrush duetrost reported from Tjeldstø and Breivik.
A few hours at Skogsøy proved to be quite productive with highlights being a Red-necked Grebe gråstrupedykker heading south and a flock of seven Shelduck gravand heading north. Otherwise singles of Red-throated Diver smålom and Great Northern Divers islom on the move along with ca 950 Oystercatcher tjeld.
Stationary birds included a couple of Little Auk alkekonge, singing Redwing rødvingtrost and Song thrush måltrost, a flock of over 40 Purple Sandpiper fjæreplytt and most of the usual.
A few Orcas spekkhoggere headed south - no doubt feeding on the herring which seem to be present in good numbers.
