A nice couple of hours on Hernar in very summery and calm conditions.
The first Willow Warbler løvsanger of the fed with several Chiff-chaff gransanger and even sang briefly.
A bunch of other migrants have also returned to the island so there was plenty to see. A Peregrine vandrefalk was the best of the raptors.
The boat ride out produced Great Northern Diver islom on the sea, typically diving and disappearing at very long range, some flocks of Long-tailed Ducks havelle, several Black Guillemots teist and the usual.
Back home a Pied Wagtal svartryggerle gave nice views as I checked my postbox:) I am fairly sure this is the same bird I saw here a week or two ago but it seems to have become a little blacker. Maybe a 2cy male still moulting into summer plumage??
