Birding - 24/04/09

Golden plover (!) - resting in a spud field, my first birds of the spring on the patch

Nipped out for an hour-and-a-half mid-afternoon. Quickly checked the coast between Lervik and Ranarpstrand. A few notables noted including: shoveler (pair), purple sandpiper (1 - resting at Ranarpstrand, getting late for them now), golden plover (6) and redpoll (1 @ Grytskaren, vocal and stationary, status?). A quick kick about at Lervik booted up a single snipe but none of the hoped-for migrating jacks (missed already?).
