A brisk southerly wind
meant that most of the morning’s interest was on the sea where birds passing
southwards included a pale phase adult Arctic Skua, 7 Red-throated Divers, 36
Common Scoter, 11 Velvet Scoter, 2 Dunlin, 51 Kittiwakes, 41 Guillemots, 200
Razorbills and 7 Little Auks while 3 Grey Wagtails and a Blackcap were the only
other birds of note.
Around the coast in the afternoon birds included more
awesome views of the very relaxed Gyrfalcon
perched out on Steinodden, a Sparrowhawk, a Peregrine, 34 Goldeneye, 5
Wheatears and 50+ Rock Pipits while a Great
Grey Shrike at the Radiomastene was the only thing of note inland before
the weather closed in mid-afternoon.
