Glorious sunny weather again so not ideal for grounded migrants.
During a morning walk at Herdlevær there was a selection of at least 10 species of wader both migrating and on the ground including Ruff brushane, Knot polarsnipe and Dunlin myrsnipe.
Raptors were represented with Peregrine vandrefalk, Kestrel tårnfalk and Sparrowhawk spurvehauk. White-tailed Eagle havørn put in a number of appearances from my terrace whilst I was doing some painting.
Various other waders were seen elsewhere including a Ruff brushane at Breivik and a Greenshank gluttsnipe at Skjold.
Ringing of Storm Petrels havsvale during the night proved successful with 20 birds caught.
