Big pole action

Very cold morning, brought up some memories from March, not much moving around birdwise, but it's always nice to be out in the field. In the ringing we had very few birds and after cutting down some bushes for better view of the birds from the ringing table, we decided to close the nets early, due to a very long day ahead oh us, as we planned to go all together to Skarv sø, to prepare our new CES ringing site. It was also one of slowest days so far for observations, with almost non passerines migrating or attempting to migrate.

Around noon, we arrived to Skarv Sø, equiped with saws, cutters, ropes, new nets, and alot of ringing poles, ready to set up our new ces ringing site, and after 3 hours of hard work, sweat, and avoiding snakes, the new ringing site is ready for the upcoming CES season starting next week.

A full list of today's observations can be found here.
