Although I arrived after dark I have still had some good birding today. The 3 and a half hour ferry trip on flat seas gave me a White-billed Diver, 5 Storm Petrels and a Sooty Shearwater!
Then once I arrived at my base (John Stenersen’s «cabin») I was straight out to look for Jack Snipe! My thermal camera worked wonders in the dark and 5 were found! We also found Common Snipe, Golden Plover and Dunlin. 4 Olive-backed Pipits were found today so my hoped for tommorrow are very high!
