I am back in Kvismaren after my holidays. It gets dark much earlier and it’s colder than when I left! Geese, ducks and waders are coming back to Kvismaren and the lakes are more active than when I left at the end of July. However, the number of birds we ring has decreased a lot (around 50 birds per morning). This cold summer was not good for most birds in the north and we can notice that when ringing. This week we had a good entrance of Bramblings (all juv.), which I’ve been told is quite early for them, Bluethroats are passing by and yesterday we caught a Sparrowhawk in Vallen!. We hope the other late migrants come soon as well!
