A good start into the week
Hi everyone!
This morning Dante, Lauren, Bjarne and me went out for morning observations as usual. We were also joined by our guest Emilia, who arrived yesterday to stay in the apartment for this week.
Yehonatan was out walking in the fields to look for some birds and joined us for some time as well. The Kingeider (Kongeederfugl) is still there, swimming with the big number of Scooters (Sortand) and a lot of Common Eiders (Ederfugl) as well. At some point in the afternoon we were actually be able to spot it from our kitchen-window! Another highlight of our morning were two Long-tailed Tits (Halemejse) who joined us for some minutes near Worlds End 1. It was the first time for me seeing the northern subspecies in the field. Furthermore we had seven Shags (Topskarv) as well.
At midday, two Golden Eagles (Kongeørn) showed up! They were flying really high, but Yehonatan managed to take some pictures:
While Dante was staying out at Worlds End 1 for observations way longer, Yehonatan, Lauren, Bjarne and me went to Kabeltromeln were we put up the tent again, moved some nets and especially cut some trees again. Afterwards we entered the data and Dante and Lauren cooked a lovely dinner for us in the evening.
People at the station: Lauren Evans, Johanna Veentjer, Dante Shepherd, Yehonatan ben aroia, Bjarne, Emilia
