Some Blackbird migration

It was again a beautiful and sunny morning today although still rather cold.

Henrik went to do morning observations today while I went on my rounds in the gardens.

I had some more birds in the nets today although less species than yesterday, mainly Blackbirds “Solsort”, another Songthrush “Sangdrossel” and two Chaffinches “Bogfinke”, a new one and a recapture from last autumn.

While I was closing the nets, members of the steering group of the bird observatory arrived. Today was a working day at the station, tidying and rearranging and throwing out stuff at the station. Henrik and I changed four old and broken nets, and we took a tree out of a net lane. Today and yesterday, I had only 180 meters of the standard nets open, from now on I can open everything. In the evening, we all had pizza together at the station.

Tak for mel!
