Øygarden 07 January 2013 - Hard going

Strong southerly winds but no rain.

A spectacularly failed start to the day - tried a few localities for various trusted regulars without success.

Black-headed Gull hettemåke at Herdlevær

White-tailed Eagle havørn at Kollsnes

Common Scoter svartand


Herdlevær / Skogsøy saved the day in the end - but only just. A Jackdaw kaie at Skogsøy and a Black-headed Gull hettemåke at Herdlevær were the best of the bunch today.

Small numbers of Whoopers sangsvane remain scattered around a few regular sites including Kollsnes and Tjeldstø.
