Night active
tirsdag 12. juli 2022
Yesterday night we decided to divide the team in two, Nathan, Rita, and Max, accompanied by Simon, Lisa, Lars Bo, a family, and our guests, went out Nightjar (Natravn) catching. It was a good ringing cession for them as they got 3 birds in their nets, and they were all very happy of the experience, which for some of them was a first.
Martina and I on the other hand stayed at the station, so that we could open the nets this morning. Oluf joined us there, and we ringed for a few hours. We got the usual species, many many juvenile Common Whitethroats (Tornsanger), but also our first juvenile Yellowhammer (Gulspurv) of the season. A family also joined us, they were at the ringing yesterday and today, and are really enjoying to see the birds from so close. Don't hesitate to do the same, you can join us there whenever we are ringing !When we came back we went to bed, while the Nightjar team was slowly getting up.
The afternoon was computer work with data entering.
Simon had a meeting with Aarhus university about the radar project and raptor catching. They talked about next autumn and spring. They will test another place to install the radar.And tonight we are going out again for nightcatching ! We will update you tomorrow morning if we caught anything !
Wish us luck !
Have a good evening,
Alice.
