Træløber in the nets - Glossy Ibis in the Air

Today me and Anglea opened the nets at Kabeltromlen and were joined by Henning and Rosalina. Maria and Sophie from the Nature shop joine dus for the first round and were relly excited to see the birds so close and were very interrested in the rining. We didn’t get a high amout of birds but a good variety of birds wich is also quite cool. The highlights were the to Treecreepers (Træløber), the Crossbill (Lille Korsnæb) and the Bullfinches (Lille Dompap)! I had a quick chat with Erik, Henrik and Rolf on Worlds End 1 and they told they saw a Glossy Ibis (Sort Ibis) flying by, that was the first one since 1974 in Skagen!

In the afternoon we did some data entry and helped Lene from the ligthouse to fix the flagpole. After she told us that she saw a flock of waxwings (Silkehale) this morning in town me and Robbie cycled to town to find them, unfortunately without success. In the evening Rosalina joined the night tour with Kurt to find experience mammals and bird in darkness at Grenen.
