A special visitor in the ringing!

After alot of hesitation the night before if we should go ringing the next morning, or stay in due to the very strong winds, we (Yehonatan, Michael, Lauren and Ying) decided to give it go, and try to ring anyway. We woke up to very strong winds but decided to open some of the nets that are more pretected from the winds due to the high amounts of bird seen around the are in the last few days. We didn't catch too many birds, but we were lucky to catch a Sparrowhawk (Spurvhøg) that was ringed somewhere in the UK!. We sent an offical report to the ringing center and now waiting to get an awnser on when and where is was ringed.

Between the few birds we caught, there was aslo the third Wood warbler (Skovsanger) for the season!

Meanwhile Dante had another chaotic day in World's end, with tons of birds moving around nonstop throughout the morning. Highlights were: more than 1000 Yellow Wagtails (Gul Vipstjert), Bee eater (Biædere), 63 Wood sandpipers (Tinksmed) Red-Footed Falcon (Aftenfalk), 3 Pallid Harriers (Steppehøg), Lesser-spotted eagle (Lille Skrigeørn), and many many more birds.

After a long day out, Michael made us all a very nice dinner, joined by Jesper & Mette, we all ended another day full of birds in the station, waiting to see what would show up tomorow.
