Is always sad to say goodbye

Lauren and Michael had opened the nets at kabeltromlen for sunrise. The weather was nice this morning because it was cloudy with less Wendy but there was quite a lot of mosquitoes, it was a nice morning session with a lot of birds, which includes the recapture chuffing which was ring in Belgium and we looking forward to seeing the data from it, and it was nice for me to see my first Brambling in hand and being ring with some baby Great Tits. Egon and his family visited us at the ringing site, but they could not stay long because the mosquitoes were too aggressive this morning. We had 42 birds this morning which were of 16 species and the highlights of the ring blow.

The journey of thousands miles has come to end and today makes my last day of ringing in Denmark in which I will be leaving in two days’ time to The Gambia and a special thanks to the people of Skagen , light house, the management of Skagen Birds Observatory and Denmark in General, this has been a life experience for me and I have learned a lot on my three month of stay here, which will help me a lot as an ornithologist and ringer. Please whenever one visits The Gambia never hesitate to pay us a visit at Kartong Bird Observatory.
