Better late than never..
Personel; Teresa, Torben, Lena, Nico, Magnus
Weather; foggy morning, cloudy rest of the day, rain in the afternoon
Projects; Great Reed Warbler, Wetland Census, Crane Counting
This early morning we were caught off unaware by a dense blanket of fog which was very pleasing to look at, indeed (especially over the lakes) but did not support our wetland census plans at all. However, half of us braved the weather and stuck to the plan.

Dagens arbete: Kvismarens första återfångst av ortolansparv med ljuslogger skedde ikväll! En hane vid Lindåsabacken blev denna superhjälte. Nu hoppas vi på intressanta dataresultat från denna ljuslogger.

Once again a grey and rainy day at Kvismaren. However, there are some very nice things to tell about. This morning Maja and Jacob were able to find a Great Reed Warbler close to Öby Kulle. Could that be the bird that disappeared some days ago? Anyway it is good to know that they may be coming soon.
