Øygarden 07 May 2007 - big day missed?

Few opportunities for birding today but a flock of five Barnacle Geese hvitkingås resting at Solberg indicated that things were happening. On returning home a flock of around 70 flew over the house - proving that Barnacles regularly pass over land and up the east side of Øygarden. This is not the first time migrating Barnacle Geese have been observed at Tjeldstø.
