Situated near Gamvik (decimal degrees
71.0605°, 28.2447°) on the northeastern tip of the Nordkinn (or Nordkyn) Peninsula in Finnmark, Norway, this rugged spot is well-situated for spring flights of skuas/jaegers, White-billed Divers (Yellow-billed Loons) and other seabirds moving eastward into the Barents Sea. Seawatching fanatic
Niklas Holmström has created a dedicated
Slettnes web site as part of his
Seawatching.net platform. In addition to useful maps and travel information, he hopes to populate the site with seawatching results, photos and video. A number of video clips have already been uploaded and an extensive
gallery of photos is scheduled to go on-line in June. Until then, check out the neat shot of a flock adult Pomarine Skuas/Jaegers - a taste of things to come.
