Skogsøy 28 July 2018 - Too little too late

Easterly breeze, HOT and sunny.

Made it out late to Skogsøy and caught the back end of the morning's migration although things were slowing down rapidly by the time I made it out there. Best birds were several Swift tårnseiler and a couple of Knot polarsnipe. Migration consisted of a passage of Common Gull fiskemåke, Oystercatcher tjeld, Great Black-backed Gulls svartbak and Greylags grågås (way out out to sea).

Other than that just Gannets havsule, a few Twite bergirisk and the first Common Crossbill grankorsnebb for a while.

After a couple of hours seawatching it was back home to work.
