Staff: Bruno, Mike, Malin, Ida, Linda, Frans and Andrea.
Weather: Lot of fog and cold during the whole ringing session.
Project: CES ringing at Vallen.
This morning we were joined again by the 5 students from the Klarälvdalens folkhógskola i Stóllet. We had also a group of visitors/toerists who came to see what ringing is all about. Bruno had lots of explaining to do. While Bruno was talking we captured nice birds as Yellowhammer, Bluethroat, Bearded Tit and a Red Backed Shrike.
Yesterday evening we also tried to catch a Nightjar or a Tawny Owl. No luck this time.
