An early May update as I’m going on a birding trip. May has treated us well with the last eight days on +20 C and ony a single night with frost.

April,2024
A typical (?) April with hope for Spring as well as snow and rain. The pollen season is also here, ruining a number of intended excursions for me.
March, 2024
Spring is slowly advancing and the first batch of migratory birds have arrived.
May, 2023
At last, the real Spring is here. I will leave for a birding excursion in the south of Sweden in a couple of days, so this entry will not completely cover May.
The Öland trip, 2022-10-06–09
A trip with “Tisdagsklubben” to the south of the Öland island in the middle of the migration season. A wonderful trip, that yielded eleven new “bildkryss” (species).
August, 2022
A month that stareted out very hot, humid and sunny and ended as Fall with cool temperatures and showers. Very few insects this summer, meaning certain birds have had food issues. A the bird flu has taken its toll too.
April, 2022
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.
March, 2022
The sunniest March ever with minimal rain/snow and with Spring approaching. An increasing number of larger migratory birds, but the smaller ones have mostly avoided my camera this far.
First half of August, 2021
A quiet month this far – awaiting a trip to Österlen in the south of Sweden.
April, 2021
Wish I could say Spring was here for real, but there has been night frost, low temperatures and northern winds lately. That said, the early migratory birds are showing up and the blackbirds and robins are singing.
