Hornoy Brunnich,s Guillys (1 Viewer)

Hi all, I am thinking of visiting this site in mid feb next year, as part of a trip for Stellers Eiders etc. Would any Brunnich,s Guillemots have arrived close inshore at this time. I know it is a little early for the guillemots but it is the only time I can visit this site, thanks Simon

I think guillemots and other species of alcidae arrive at the breeding grounds in late March. In Finnmark county, a few individuals very occasionally may be seen near the coast in winter. Reported Brunnich,s Guillemots in February of Finnmark in recent years:
