Friday, June 1, 2007 - Red-breasted Flycatcher
New month, new list!
Went to Hönö to build a new nest for birders. Not a stunning amount of birds on the east side of the island though. But then again, every bird I saw was a new month-tick :) Common Tern, Mute Swan, Oystercatcher, Linnet, etc.
Went out in the afternoon to look for Red-breasted Flycatcher, and we found it too. Didn't manage to see it, but life-tick none the less. Month ticks there included Great Spotted Woodpecker, Black Woodpecker and Grey Wagtail.

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...
