The less said about today the better. It is cloudy at the
moment and temperatures are a few degrees over zero and there is little wind
but this has put a real dampener on bird activity. I attempted to refind the
Med Gull again today but couldn’t find a single gull around Nordre
Øyeren. I also searched four reedbeds at Fornebu with no sign of Beardies and
very few birds generally. Maridalen was also very quiet although the Shrike was
still present although in a new area.
The day was so frustratingly quiet that I turned my eye to
stringing a Herring Gull into something more exciting although I’m not really
sure what I was trying to string it into…possibly a Caspo but really it was
just an odd Herring and there are plenty of those out there.

| that Shrike again although as two were seen together earlier in the morning this may be another individual |
