Looking north from Finsbo. Ice is creeping slowly out into Laholmsbukten, making seaducks hard to find.This morning I headed out to look at the Halland part of BK, knowing full well that the good bits of the patch would be well-covered by year-listing non-residents today. Kicked off at Hemmeslövsstrand, at the outfall of the river there was a patch of open water with a few wildfowl including five tufted duck. Offshore just nine eider and 15 velvet scoter, as well as over 50 goldeneye. The garden feeders here had crested tit and marsh tit.
Next stop was Eskilstorp, which produced three collared dove and then I walked into to Eskilstorpsdammar hoping for a finch and bunting flock. Sadly just 15 chaffinch here and a waxwing heard. Driving back over the ridge produced a single sparrowhawk and very few other birds. A slow start to the year year predictably but plenty to go for still.
