Late October - Early November Southern Norwegian Sector

Still not birding Øygarden - or anywhere else for that matter.


This male Eider ærfugl followed the vessel for a couple of days and looked like it wanted to climb onboard.




This lone Goldcrest fuglekonge called constantly and vainly for some others of its own species


Redwings rødvingetrost were seen or heard more or less daily




A grand total of about 20 minutes on deck in the space of two weeks produced quite a bit of movement at times. Best birds were Short-eared Owls jordugle seen on a few dates. Otherwise just the usual autumn migrants including four species of thrush and Little Auk alkekonge.

A couple of species I don't see much of around platforms also turned up - an Eider ærfugl and a Cormorant storskarv.
