Stenpikker & some more of the commonly caught migrants

There was more of the same types of species today but fewer in quantity and the garden quietened down quite early on.

In the afternoon we went to the beach to try for Rock Pipits (Skærpiber) and Gulls (Måger) and had no luck with either, but did see a Purple Sandpiper (Sortgrå Ryle) on the rocks.

This very confiding Brent Goose has stayed on to feed up while the flock that it arrived with moved on a few days ago.

The only capure for all our efforts was a Wheatear (Stenpikker) that flew into the net set for the pipits.

On the way back to the observatory, a Queen of Spain Frittillary (Storplettet perlemorsommerfugl) was seen again and eventually photographed. This butterfly occurs throughout the Palaearctic and is strngly migratory in Western Europe.
