Friday, June 8, 2007 - Suddenly summer came
I know June is considered a summer month, but usually there's some warmth at the end of May so we can adjust a bit. But no! End of May, 15 degrees C. Start of June 30 degrees C.
The House Martins around here are nesting everywhere now. Two weeks ago there were six nests on my house and none on the other ones. Now there are at least ten on my house and I haven't counted the others. Also a lot of Swifts flying around but I doubt that they are nesting right here. Maybe over at the old barracks. There are high and pretty old buildings over there.

| ...and you get to wonder if this heat wave is gonna stay with us for long. But one good thing about this is the wonderful nights. You just have to take a Hisingen trip one of these nights. I'm still stunned about last night's results. Guess I'll have to open a blog like this on my own soon... |

About Me
26 year old birder from Gothenburg, Sweden.
My goal for 2007 was get above 200 life-ticks. I managed 215 and the goal for 2008 was to get to 250. Right now it looks like I might get to 250 year ticks which is of course even better.
