RBF

With a reasonable westerly blowing it was out to Ripagården for four hours before breakfast. I was hoping for some migrating waders but it did not happen. The highlight was my first kittiwake of the year - a single adult. Early on a few divers were moving; red-throated (9) and black-throated (3). Geese were evident in small numbers with brent goose (25) and barnacle goose (3) being the best of it.

In the afternoon I took the team out for a walk off-patch at Dömestorp and amazingly we connected with a very vocal red-breasted flycatcher - a male but not in full plumage. Stopped in at Klarningen briefly on the way home for whooper swan (2).
