Slightly less wind and a lot more rain today.
Hard going to get much new in - failed for the vast majority of things I tried for.
Starting in the south of Øygargen I covered a few localities on Toftøy but only added Crested Tit toppmeis, Wren gjerdesmett, Goldcrest fuglekonge and Common Crossbill grankorsnebb here - in other words nothing special.
Things continued in the same vein at several other localities. I gave up my plan and headed to Hjelme West in order to save the day. This turned out to also be a dismal failure but I did add Sparrowhawk spurvehauk here.
A last ditch effort to save the day at Solberg proved successful - a nice Great Northern Diver islom on the sea here may have been the only one seen in Hordaland during the three day bird race. A couple of Velvet Scoter sjøorre were also present here.
So after two days 41 species is pretty disappointing - hope for a better day tomorrow.
