Weather: Cloudy in the early morning, around 15 degrees with a light breeze, sunshine breaking through later in the morning
Today was a fantastic day at Vallen with a few highlights. We caught a Blue Throat, Tree Pipit and a Red Start. We were especially excited about the two Barred Warblers, with which we now have four individuals of this species ringed this season.

Project: CES ringing at Banvallen.
Weather: Cloudy in the early morning, but turned sunny and warm later.
A low day with few captures (34 birds) at Banvallen today. An adult White-tailed sea eagle captivated us while creating chaos among the waterfowl. An adult Red-backed shrike, a very beautiful bird, was the most interesting one that was ringed today.
Today´s captures:
Sedge warbler 4
Reed warbler 6

Project: CES ringing at Vallen.
Weather: Cloudy in the early morning, it rained a little and not for a very long time, but enough to disturb the ringing session.
Few captures at Vallen (53), poor numbers for the best station here in Kvismaren. But in the last it was exciting because we could see a White-tail eagle really close to us and in the last minutes we caught the first Barred warbler of the season (first in my life too).
Today´s captures:
Staff: Ashwin, Carlos, Bruno, Helena and Annemarie
Weather: Cloudy morning with less than 20 degrees, only small wind.
CES-Ringing: Today our catches were dominated by Barn Swallows. Carlos put up playback and it took only 5 min and the net was filled with nearly 40 Barn Swallows. Also, we attracted 3 Nuthatches with playback to the net. In the afternoon we set up some nets close to our Bird observatory in order to catch White Wagtails and Barn Swallows.

Project: Ringing program CES.
Weather: Cloudy morning at Banvallen, just one hour of sun at the beginning of the session. It was rainy and windy in the afternoon.
In the ringing session we caught 49 birds of 13 different species. 40 of them were new ringings and 9 recaptures.
The summary of today is:
Tree pipit 1
Thrush nightingale 1
Sedge warbler 6
Marsh warbler 1
Reed warbler 9 + (1)
Staff: Bruno, Carlos, Helena and Annemarie.
Weather: Rain, rain and more rain.
We woke up at 3:45 and it was raining, we tried again at 5:00 and at 6:00 but the it continued raining. Finally the rain stopped at 7:00, to late to try ringing at Banvallen, so we decided set 6 nets around the observatory. We captured:
2 Blue tit
8 Robin
2 Marsh tit
11 Great tit
We hope tomorrow the weather will be better.
Until tomorrow
