Calm, sunny and HOT
A pipit caught in the nets at Herdlevær was a bit of a head-scratcher - not quite fitting anything quite right. It had rather dark legs, a streaked rump, wingth length right at the very top end for Meadow pipit (but fitting other stuff instead).At the time of writing my money is on a strange Meadow Pipit, but it could be all kinds of things, possibly even a hybrid.
Also picked up a female Black Redstart svartrødstjert - probably the same bird found here a couple of days ago.
A Common Seal steinkobbe was very close in and made the water look most inviting.....
Otherwise Cuckoos gjøk now all over the place and a singing Sedge Warbler sivsanger at the usual place was the first of the year for me.
Streaked rump
P5 looking too long to be RT
Not quite sure what this means yet but best to document
More of a super than on most Meadow Pipits
At first glance a Meadow Pipit heipiplerke
