Summer has taken us to Österlen in the south of Sweden, Gusum, Gotland and of course Färingsö.
May, 2026
My May bird photos, with exception of the “Skåne de luxe” trip. Except home grounds in Bromma and Färingsö, I visited Blidö, and the Österlen area (mainly Brantevik).

Another great four-day excursion with Henrik W. We saw or heard something like 130 different species of birds. I managed to capture images of three species I did not have before.
April, 2026
At last a bit more active birding this month. Apart from the home areas, I went out with Henrik W on an excursion to the outer northern Stockholm archipelago and then visited a few birding sites in the Leksand area.
February & March, 2026
After a wintery February, Spring is intermittedly arriving and with it the first migratory birds.
January, 2026
January has been a Winter month with a decent amount of snow. For the second year in a row I attended the BioFoto Stockholm Heron outing at lake Råstasjön. A cold day, so I din not linger for very long.
Fall, 2025
Long time no see. Been a slow Fall this year, no Winter weather, just overcast and moist. No specific bird spotting trips, etcetera. A few pretty unisnpiring images shot however.
August (until September 5), 2025
This month included a shorter trip to lake Yxningen for a crayfish party and two weeks in Österlen in the south of Sweden. I will have to apologize for the quality of some pictures as I had the camera on people identification after I photographed the soccer team of one of the grandkids. Changed it to bird id as soon as I noticed, but e.g. the Common shelduck, Wood sandpipers, Sparrow hawk and Western marsh harrier didn’t turn out as expected.
July, 2025
The main event this month was a two week trip to the island of Gotland. The weather was by far the warmest and sunniest this summer, make bird excursions a drag.
June, 2025
There is a new global standard (AviList) and I have tried to update the names of bird to adhere to it.
