Seawatch...

Just had to try this morning and did an hour or so sea watching at Herdlevær. Suppose the strong wind was from the wrong direction (north), because the only species I saw were Northern Gannets (ca 100) and Greater Black-backed Gulls. Circumstances were rather difficult due to the very strong wind and I was alone, so it could well be that that there was more about than I saw...I'll have another try next week for some shearwaters if I'm lucky...
Further at Herdlevær a nice group of Starlings, a young Whinchat, three Northern Wheatears among others. A very quick look at Tjeldstø only resulted in seeing the Bar-headed Geese, which are present for a long time already.
