Morning Observations and Night catching preparations

First of all, apologies for the late update.

Overall the day was rather slow, in the morning the planned ringing was canceled due to high winds and the others took to Worlds End 3 for morning observations while I went straight back to bed, which, was much needed and enjoyable. In the morning, observations were also slow, excluding the expected movements of Common Scoter (Sortand), a few shorebirds such as Dunlin (Almindelig Ryle), Red Knot (Islansk Ryle) and Sanderlings (Sandløber) down on the pond, as well as some barnacle geese (Bramgås) were the highlights of the morning.

In the afternoon, Me, Hanelie and Simon took our PANT into town and did some shopping with our payback. Hanelie took a trip to Skarvsøen to see how many shorebirds there were and how many there were to see if it was worth catching them in the night as we did previously. With the Spotted Redshank (Sortklire), Ruff (Brushane) and a few other species we decided to go and try our luck once again in the hope of plenty more Snipe (Dobbeltbekkasin) but also, particularly for the Spotted Redshanks and Ruff. I also took a trip out to Skarvsøen in the evening taking the path through Jenne Sø and saw good numbers of Spotted Flycatchers (Grå Fluesnapper), Whinchat (bynkefugl) and our 3 resident juvenile Red-Footed Falcons (Aftenfalk).
