Northest winds are over - again!

tirsdag 28. juli 2026
af Nico, Lois, Miguel, David

Just after sunrise, the wind was blowing directly and quite intensely from the west. As the hours passed, it became more and more weak, and shifted to southwest around midday. 

This change motivated some seabirds to appear, such as a Guillemot, some tens of Northern Gannets and more Arctic Terns, for example. The first juvenile Little Gull and Kittiwake of the season were seen, adding a small surprise to the otherwise quiet morning count.

Around 5:00 p.m. some Red Knot groups started migrating south, making 77 adult birds southwards until 18:00. As conditions are right, we're hoping for good numbers tomorrow!
