Strong southerly winds, some rain showers. A thaw has slowly started - lets hope it lasts long enough to give the birds some respite.
I took things very easy today starting off at Hellesøy just after it got light. Not a whole lot going on with a few Starling stær the best sighting. A few White-tailed Eagles havørn, nine Herons gråhegre feeding in the channel there and a selection of the usual stuff.
A drive-by at Sæle on the way home was a bit more exciting with a Song Thrush måltrost the first of the year as well as being the first for quite some time. This species is a scarce winter visitor here.
A very short visit to Tjeldstø gave a couple of Woodcock rugde and a flock of 10 Chaffinch bokfink.
Back home at least two, probably three Woodcock rugde in or close to the garden, a Fieldfare gråtrost, a couple of Redwing rødvingetrost and three White-tailed Eagles havørn were among the species noted.
