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.

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.
May, 2025
A cool, dry and often windy month that ended with warmer wheather.
