Another calm and sunny day with light easterlies.
The weather is just too good to down any migrants. Generally fewer birds on the ground but more species than the previous visit. Good weather and good company meant this was a great day out.
Once again no rarities but two Whooper Swans sangsvane migrating south were the first seen from Hernar:) Bullfinches dompap with the "trumpet" call associated with eastern birds were seen, two migrating Jack Snipe kvartbekkasin and another flushed from a boggy area, Woodcock rugde, Blackcaps munk, Goldfinch stillits, a Goshawk hønsehauk, lots of White-tailed Eagle havørn, a flyover Black-throated Diver storlom, a late Kestrel tårnfalk and plenty more besides.
Two happy birders headed back to Hellesøy as the light went:)
