Back in a rather cold and wintery Oslo for several days.
A walk around town on 10 February produced little other than a few Coot sothøne among the usual wildfowl close to the opera house and a nice male Wigeon brunnakke on the largely frozen Akerselva.

The next day I predictably took a trip to Gressholmen which was back to more or less normal after the last visit which produced rather more. A few Great-crested Grebes toppdykker were the best sighting, otherwise just the usual Velvet Scoter sjøorre, Guillemots lomvi and Razorbills alke. A Common Seal caught and ate a nice flatfish.
After this I didn't get out at all but managed up to five Hawfinch kjernebiter from the urban terrace.
