The Serin (Gulhämpling) was still very much present around the lighthouse
area today in sunny weather and chasing away any other birds which dared to
come too close! A Hobby (Lärkfalk) and two Rough-legged Buzzards (Fjällvråk) flew north. 30 birds were ringed including seven
Bluethroats (Blåhake), the first Thrush Nightingale (Näktergal) of the year and the first Barn Swallow (Ladusvala) to be ringed this year.
