This post will cover yesterday which was a day when I did
not see Hawk Owl and even though I did see Pine Grosbeak I contained myself and
didn’t take any pictures. Going cold turkey was easier than I imagined 😅.
I did however add another species to #Oslo2024 taking
me to 207(205). It was a targeted trip to Huk that resulted in Long-tailed Duck
with a few recent sightings on the fjord making me feel I had a good chance of
seeing one. I did in fact see 4 with a distant flock flying past which I believe
were in Oslo air space. Also here were 2 Rock Pipits which showed surprisingly
well for this species.
In Maridalen even though the Hawk Owl evaded me I did
see a Pygmy Owl which amazingly enough is rarer this autumn.
