Spring is slowly advancing and the first batch of migratory birds have arrived.

June (the remainder), 2023
A busy month concludes with grand kid duties at lake Yxningen and trips around that area as well as some birding around home.

Enjoyed a beautiful two early summer weeks in Brantevik, Österlen.
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.
April, 2023
A typical April this year, almost Summer some days, and snow on others.
April-May 2022, Alvesta & Österlen
Another trip down to fair Österlen via Alvesta. Spring is still late, but a number of late migrants started to arrive on the last days.
June, 2021
After that drab May, June has been very warm for Sweden. Often too hot for both me and the birds. With 35% of adult Swedes now vaccinated and the virus retreating, I hope the bird hikes will soon pick up again.
May (the 2nd half), 2021
In between heavy rain days, Spring has finally arrived and thus allowing me to visit a number of local bird sanctuaries.
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.
March, 2021
A wintery start of March turned into a Spring (almost), at least occasionally. I have seen he first returning and northward bound birds.
