Early morning for CDF that decided to do a check on Ortolan Buntings to register feeding behaviours. GRW team was the next to go out in Kvismaren lakes with 3 new nests found, 1 new male and a couple of new females around.
CSP went to Rysjön for some Marsh Harrier observations of individuals and nests. And later the team went to check some of the Starling Nestboxes, which will be continued tomorrow.
Late afternoon, Maja Tarka (MTA) joined the team to help out the GRW team while DHT, LAR and MLA where still out in the lakes catching a male with a successfully retrieved logger!
DWE and CDF joined Magnus Friberg to an expedition to find Ural Owl, but only tomorrow we will now if they were lucky.
Even though it was late already, the team had a really nice laugh talking about Monty Python and fieldwork struggles in the lakes. The tasty curry must have had something else in the spices!
Life is good at Ängfallet.
