The Hobby is highly migratory, feeding on airborne
songbirds and insects. Their northward movement
in Europe spikes about now. One was well photographed
near Steinkjer, Nord-Trøndelag, Norway last year about this
time. That's the dizzying latitude of 64 degrees north.
I imagine the bird in Homer was spending the winter
on southern Honshu (the "big" island in Japan) or someplace
south of there. Hobbies breed regularly north of the
Sea of Okhotsk. Lars
