Oystercatcher tjeld and Ringed Plover sandlo were the most numerous waders migrating although quite a few species passed included several Greenshank gluttsnipe. Several Common Sandpiper strandsnipe fed on the shore.

At Herdlevær a drive-by produced the first Whinchats buskskvett of the year.
A boat trip around the islands in the late afternoon provided plenty of action without anything really special turning up. Plenty of various wader species including at least 55 Knot polarsnipe and 10 Purple Sandpiper fjæreplytt fed on the islands. Best sighting was a party of three first year Shelduck gravand.
