17th March


Cloudy with a much stronger, cold, easterly wind than yesterday; 4 Great-northern Divers, two Velvet Scoters and the Tystie were again offshore while there were a few vague hints of some migration with 19 Oystercatchers, a Curlew and 47 Greylag Geese moving past while a single Skylark came in off, low across the sea – it was struggling at one point, I thought it was going to ditch into the water but luckily it made it in!
                On the land 4 Mistle Thrushes through and 3 Pied Wagtails in Vågsvollvika which headed off south also hinted at some movement while the Slavonian Grebe was still in Verevågen.
