Very hot and sunny, thankfully with a breeze from around 10:00.
After pathetically little opportunity to get out and about for what feels like months I finally managed my second visit to Hernar this year.
The local breeders were very busy indeed with Lesser Redpoll brunisik, Twite bergirisk, Linnet tornirisk, Wheatear steinskvett and Whitethroat tornsanger among the species with newly fledged young.
Highlights were a couple of Swift tårnseiler early on, two House Martins taksvale and a dark phase Arctic Skua tyvjo just as I left the island.
