Birding on the west coast of Sweden

Saturday, September 13, 2008 - A picture from Padjelanta - at least something :)

Posted in Local watching
Not exactly a lot of blogging lately. Lots of stuff in need of being done, but also quite a lot of birding going unmentioned. Lifers since last post: Sabine's Gull at Kråkudden, September 3. Spotted migrating south  at 2 kilometers distance or so. I would probably have missed it or taken it for a Little Gull if I was there alone. Also, finally, Hen Harrier at Brudarebacken. A beautiful adult male, less than a hundred yards away, going past us fairly slowly.
And here's while waiting for more; a first picture from the Padjelanta trip. This particular photograph taken just outside Jokkmokk town.

Siberian Jay (Perisoreus infaustus)

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.
