Now we are ready for Christmas
Today Judith opened the nets in the garden and we both had breakfast together with Esben (that joined a bit later). Then Judith and Esben went for the first round at the same time as I was starting the observations from the beach next to Det Grå Fyr. The morning in the observations started quite busy but after an hour and a half slowed down (with some big flocks of Common Scoters (Sortand) and Eiders (Ederfugl).
Christian also joined ringing for a while this morning before he left Skagen in his way back home (we hope you a nice and safe trip back home!). Jorgen and Igor also visited us while ringing.
Simon's morning was bringing Christian to the train station and checking us in the ringing. Also, he was busy with the board meeting Christmas dinner during the noon.
In the ringing, they had mostly Greenfinches (Grønirisk) as the previous days.
I joined ringing after the observations as well and in between the rounds we were sewing nets from the other ringing sites.
We had a nice Twite (Bjergirisk) in the nets that you can see in the picture below.
When we closed the nets in the garden, we continued sewing nets during the afternoon. We entered the data of today and Esben helped with the Christmas lights and Christmas trees downstairs.
After a while, we planned the following day and we started to get ready for dinner.
And now we are starting a movie night!
