Marsh Harrier;
In the morning we looked for marsh harriers from Ormkärrsplattformen. We couldn´t confirm any nest this morning either. We saw two birds flying around together that should have been a pair but we didn´t see them with nest material. Some other birds were also flying around and even if some of them probably are from other parts of the area we expect that at least 1-2 pairs will breed here.
Hooded Crow and Raven;
Today was a much better day than yesterday. We did find one confirmed raven nest and a probable crow breeding in the same little wood. One confirmed crow nest one-two other probable crow breeding was also found. Now we have found 20 active crow nests and 4 confirmed raven breedings
