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.

Summer and Fall, 2024

My seven months old Windows computer died early September and was returned for service. After almost three months without the repairs getting completed, I received a new one through the guarantee. (Don’t ask me about my experience trying to have a dialogue with support!) My other excuse for not posting here is that we’ve been busy since early August trying to find an apartment so we can sell our house. It’s now finalized, even though the actual move is a couple of months away.

2024-05 Österlen de luxe revisited

Favorit i repris, en fågelexkursion i Skåne i slutet av maj. Det blev en härlig tripp med många identifierade arter (drygt 130) och fem nya bildkryss till min samling. Som vanligt blev detingen bild på Sommargyllingen, men vi hörde den igen.

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.

2023-05-25–28 Österlen deluxe

A luxury four day trip to beautiful Österlen with single room accomodation and breakfast + dinner included. Led by Henrik W, we observed around 135 bird species, but I was of course not able to photograph them all. And as usual, some of the ones I did get, are not identifyable by the image – you’ll have to trust us.

July, 2022

July has been cooler than last year and we spent a couple of weeks at the island of Gotland and visited some new places.
