Weather: Very cold and wet
Projects: Marsh Harriers
An unfortunately drizzly day, leading to rather unspectacular results from the days Marsh Harrier attempts from the Rysjön tower. 1 male was seen feeding only over a couple of hour period, but the weather will mostly be to blame for the lack of activity.
This year we are attempting to identify each harrier by its markings to aid us in understanding how many adults are polygamous birds. This male was well marked with ‘blonde shoulders’.
Will no forecast rain tomorrow a return to finish off the wetlands census at Fräknabotten is on the cards.
