Birding on the west coast of Sweden

Monday, August 24, 2009 - Oh my, it has been so long...

I've been doing other stuff than birding a lot this year. Unemployment is full time activity, really :)
As you can derive from the tick list in the right column, reaching 300 lifers this year will probably be impossible unless 22 rare and semi rare birds decide to visit the Gothenburg area this autumn.

Little Egret (Egretta garzetta)

House Martins (Delichon urbicum)

Hopefully, autumn will bring a bit more birding and also more blog entries. Until then, get out there and watch! :)

About Me

27 year old birder from Gothenburg, Sweden. Last year we twitched for year ticks. I ended up with 250 which is more than I had lifers when the year started. This year I'll go fairly easy on the year ticks (Though anything under 200 is shameful) but will instead aim for 300 life ticks in Sweden. A task and a half probably...
