I have been searching for Pine Grosbeaks in vain but lots of rain and southerly winds are hopefully just holding them up and the first two were reported in Oslo yesterday so the hope lives on. If they don’t arrive in any numbers then I really think this winter will be the most uneventful I can remember in Oslo. There are no new signs of owls turning up and I cannot even find a Pygmy any more. The Great Grey Shrike and Buzzard also seem to have moved on which is a sure sign of lack of rodents. The southerly winds gave hope of a last chance for some sea gazing and today, finally, I saw some birds that were clearly displaced by the storms further south and west. Three hours at Krokstrand were for once, in recent years, worth it and gave a number of good local birds. A Grey Phalarope topped the list although views could have been better and single Gannet and Fulmar and a few Kittiwakes and Little Gulls made it feel like the old times. There were good numbers of Razorbills but no other auks, not even a Guillemot and certainly no Little Auks which I had hoped to be present. My eBird checklist can be seen here. As I write this a Manx Shearwater has been seen off downtown Oslo and I can hear outside that the winds are stronger than this morning when I was gazing so a longer gaze may have paid dividends. I hardly took a photo in the dark, damp conditions but here is what I managed to document: the view from today's chosen watchpoint which was right next to the car such that I could take shelter if it rained too much a young Kittiwake (krykkje). The building in the background is Filtvet Fyr and is about 3km away and a Little Gull (dvergmåke)
