A chilly Spring this year. I started attending a second Tuesday (early morning) club, out on the Mälarö islands (MOF in photo captions below). We also had a short visit to the island of Gotland over Easter. But now it’s time to start packing for the trip down to the Österlen in the south of Sweden for the next two weeks.

In between heavy rain days, Spring has finally arrived and thus allowing me to visit a number of local bird sanctuaries.

A good month for waders as they are on the move south. I got two new birds on photo (Water rail and Common greenshank), and one first captured in Sweden (Great egret).

With the Covid-19 virus still going, we did not go on any larger excursions. Mainly brought the camera on dog-walks.
