Summer is not over yet !

What a lovely day we had again today ! As usual, Amelie, Angus and Simon took the first round at the ringing station. As the weather was calm and wind-less, plenty of birds were wainting to be ringed ! Christina had then to back them up to help them extract the birds and ring them. Although it was a summery day, the 2 most captured species today has an autumn smell : 13 Wrens (Gærdesmutte) and 18 Robins (Rødhals). Some other nice species ended up their way in the nets today: a Northern Wheatear (Stenpikker), a Meadow Pipit (Engpiber) and a 2 Bramblings (Kvæverfinke) !

Christina and I were at World’s End 1 today for migration counting. Since the wind was really slow, I didn’t really expect seabird migration to be entertaining and I focused then on passerines. I enjoyed a lovely morning then with a good numbers of Coal, Blue and Great tits flocks (Blåmejse, Sortmejse, Musvit), a few Jays (Skovskade) and some scarce species for Skagen such as Hawfinch (Kernebider) or Woodlark (Hedelærke) including one singing individual!

Nothing really special to share with you about our afternoon, dedicated to our daily tasks such as data entry, sheet checking, holy nap time, …

In the evening, the love couple Amelie and Augustin spent their time in town skateboarding and eating, enjoying the last night of Augustin’s stay which is unfortunately ending tomorrow already… Time flies fast !
