Skogsøy 10 July 2011 - autumn migration

A short and rather wet seawatch around dawn produced some birds of interest including a few Øygarden year ticks. Two Swift tårnseiler flew south well offshore, a small party of Dunlin myrsnipe and a Bar-tailed Godwit lappspove headed the same way. Small numbers of other waders were the only other migrants - the autumn migration is underway...

Other stuff included a couple of Puffins lunde and a few Guillemots lomvi.
