Staff: DWE, MLA, LST
Weather: Another warm day!
Projects: Marsh Harrier, Big nest boxes, Starling nestboxes.
This morning DWE and MLA went to Lötenplatform to check out the Marsh harrier nesting activities on Rysjön and Nyängen. We discover 1 for sure new nest but 2 very likely nests as well in Nyängen.
Following this we went to climb and check the larger boxes in Sörön for Tawny Owl’s in order to collect unhatched eggs for the Riksmuseum in Stockholm. Sadly no nests were found in the nest boxes here.
We began the full clutch counts for the Starling nest boxes and discovered 9/25 nests occupied by Starlings in Fiskingemaden. We will complete the other 100 nest boxes over the next couple of days.
