Bitingly cold southerly, overcast with light snow.
Started at Hjelme Vest where seaduck numbers remain very low - with the exception of Long-tailed Duck havelle which numbered around 90. Just four Eiders ærfugl and a single Common Scoter svartand. Best bird here was a lone Curlew storspove.
Solberg was shrouded in smoke from heather burning further south at Herdlevær. Little on the sea here either.
At Tjeldstø a new Iceland Gull grønlandsmåke, this time a first winter / 2cy, joined small numbers of Herring Gulls gråmåke. I suspected a second bird yesterday but never refound it at the time.
Still plenty of Otters to see
