Otherwise, while Henrik was ringing passerines, Hans and I have gone to Nysted to ring Kestrals!!!
But first, one stop in a big lake to see a place where Cormorants are breeding. Very nice. There were a lot.
Nysted is a very beautiful city, and it has been the first time to me ringing Kestrals hehe they are so cute, but so fast too, they were so scared from us, and they have tried to run a lot!! They were on the top of a protestant church. It has been so funny.

Here some photos of the lake of cormorants, and of the kestrals.

First, at the end of the ringing day, Henrik and me were seeing the sea looking for birds, when suddenly...seals!!! yes, my friends, 3 wonderful seals swimming into the sea. I couldn't believe it.  In my country, Spain, we don't have seals...a big big surprise to me. Furthermore we have seen a lot of Swans over the sea, too. No, my friends, in Spain we don't have wild Swams! Perfect day. 

Then, hours later... Gert and me have gone for a walk(looking for birds)...and one more!! another seal!! I'm really happy to stay in Denmark, really :). Thanks Gert. 

For finish, I would like to say Bye an Thank you very much to Henrik, who has returned today to his home.  Thank you for the lessons, for your patience with me...and for the chili nuts ;)

Ny ringmærker fra Spanien

Dagen gik en del bedre end forventet da der var fugle på alle runder på nær åbnerunden som de sidste dage også har været tomme.
Der var ikke andet at se end de syngende ynglegugle i buskene, men alligevel var der lidt fugle på hver runde hvilket var dejligt efter flere dage med næsten ingen fugle.
I dag blev hele 11 gulbuge ringmærket(totalt 36 for i år) så det var en stor del af dem i dag, men det må jo betyde at der er flere fugle på vej.
Gert kom forbi om eftermiddagen hvor vi skulle ordne det ene hejsenet som længe har skulle ordnes og det blev et lidt større arbejde end vi have regnet med da nogle ting drillede, men det blev ordnet og nu står det lige som det skal.
Til aften kom Lydia som kommer fra Spanien og hun skal være her det næste stykke tid.
Dog vil jeg være her i morgen med og måske en dag mere som backup hvis der er behov eller spørgsmål.

Sol og blæst

Til morgen var det helt klart men også noget blæsende så forventede ikke noget særligt.
Vinden øgede ret hurtigt fra 6 m/s til 9, men alle net på nær 3 var oppe.
På en afrunderne løb en husmår over vejen tæt på huset, jeg håber ikke den kommer til at give problemer.
En snog blev set i æblehaven.
Så godt som alle fugle i haven i dag var dem som synger fra samme sted hver dag så det er ynglefuglene.
Louis havde igen biæder på Odden, men den kom desværre ikke ind i haven, men da standardtiden lige var gået satte jeg lyd på for at måske kunne fange den men sol og vind gjorde at nettene var ret synlige så valgte at lukke ned 11.30.

Stille dag i haven

Til morgen da jeg kom ud var der skyet og lidt vind som indikerede at der nok ville komme regn.

Da vinden var lidt hård nogle steder var der 3 net som ikke kom op.

De første runder var også uden fugle(første runde 4.15) og først efter 6.30 blev den første fgl fanget så vidste at det ville blive endnu en ret tom dag.

I haven her var der ingen fart, men ude fra Odden blev der meldt sølvhejre(som jeg ikke nåede at se) og det samme med steppehøg og 1x2 biæder.

Den sidste biæder rastede i stationshaven men der var jeg selvfølgelig på vej ind at handle.

Til aften kom 2 personer som skal kigge på natsværmere i aften/nat.

Stille dag på Odden

Da jeg gik ud og skulle sætte nettene op til morgen forventede jeg at der vil komme lidt fart på fuglene da det varme vejr jo var kommet.
Da jeg satte nettene op langs hegnet ud mod vejen var der rigtigt mange flagermus som fløj lavt så var lidt nervøs for om jeg skulle prøve krafter med at pille sådan en ud af nettet hvilket ikke er sjovt da de bider, men heldigvis skete det ikke.
De 2 første timer var der helt tomt i nettene så der vidste jeg at det ville blive en meget stille dag.
Da der var så godt som fugletomt valgte jeg at lukke ned 11.30.
Selv ude fra Odden valgte de at køre hjem der da der også var dødt.
Gert kom forbi stationen og tog mig med ud flere steder og kigge lidt fugle, så var spændende at se lidt nye steder hvor jeg ikke havde været før.
Eftermiddagen var med fuld sol og varme og vind fra syd-øst så mon ikke snart der dukker noget sjovt op.

Så kom varmen

I går kom der ingen blog da jeg kom sidst på eftermiddagen, men gårdagens mærkning endte på 3 fugle. Natten til i dag blæste det ret kraftigt så jeg regnede ikke med mange fugle i dag. Men i løbet af kort tid fra da jeg begyndte at sætte nettene op lagde vinden sig heldigvis lidt og kom ned på 7m/s så alle net kunne sættes op. Der var fugle på hver runde indtil klokken 11 hvorefter der var tomt så jeg lukkede alt ned klokken 14. Der var pæn variation med arter i fangsten i dag og karmindompap blev ny ringmærkningsart for i år. Der var et par gulbug som jeg morede mig lidt over i dag da de efterlignede både vibe og splitterne. Det er meget normalt for gulbug at efterligne andre arter. Om aftenen kom 5 personer fra havørnegruppen som skal sove på fuglestationen i nat. Dagen mærkninger:

Tomme net og Mursejlere i luften

Efter gårsdagens mere rolige vindforhold, var humøret højt her til morgen, da nettene kom op. Klokken 03:40 var alle net klar til fangst! Vinden tog dog hurtigt til igen, nu kommende fra SSØ, og allerede på første runde 04:10, stod nettene igen og blafrede i blæsten!

1 enkelt Rørsanger, 1 Gulbug og 1 Tornsanger udgjorde dagens fangst af "imponerende" 3 fugle, i løbet af 9 timer.

På et tidspunkt i løbet af formiddagen klarede vejret noget op for en kort bemærkning.

Louis stod igen ude på spidsen og kunne melde om 1 rastende Lærkefalk tidligt om morgnen. Lidt senere også 1 Biæder kortvarigt kaldende trækkende N. Der kom også mange Mursejlere igennem i dag og Louis total endte på 2996 individer. Her fra Stationshaven kom jeg godt over 600 om morgenen. Her til aften lå der godt 400 lavt og rastede ude ad Poststien inde over Birkemose.

Stille dag med Grå Fluesnappere

Da jeg lukkede døren op i morges var vinden stadig kraftig, samtidig med at det regnede. Det kunne derfor blive til 1 1/2 times mere søvn, før vejret blev godt nok til, at jeg kunne åbne nettene. Det var muligt at få sat cirka 2/3 af havens net op i læ for blæsten. I løbet af formiddagen begyndte vinden dog endelig at aftage for alvor, efter næsten en hel uges ubønhørlig vedvarende "orkan" lignende tilstand her på Odden.

Allerede mens jeg går og åbner nettene, ser jeg mindst 2 Grå Fluesnappere, der fouragerer på de lavtgående fluer, der nu viser sig efter regnen. Jeg får fanget 1 på første runde, og dagen igennem bliver jeg ved at fange dem, indtil jeg når 5 ved 14 tiden. Ud af en fangst på 19 må det siges at være en pæn andel.

Dagens Husrødstjert og 2 af dagens Grå Fluesnappere.

Ved 13 tiden sidder der så i F3 ved den gamle fårefold, en Husrødstjert hun. Det viser sig, at den har tydeligt aftegnet rugeplet, så det må være en ynglefugl med territorium ikke langt herfra!

Stille er og bliver det dog, også selvom jeg vælger at holde nettene åbne dagen igennem. Håbet om en Lille Fluesnapper eller noget andet spændende er der hele tiden, især nu med faldet af Grå Fluesnappere. Dagen igennem ser jeg mindst 13 forskellige fugle i haven, og der har sikkert været endnu flere.

Vejret ser mere "giftigt" ud i morgen, da der her i nat skal være et vindskifte. I morgen tidlig skal den gå over i S eller SØ og tage til i styrke igen. Nu må vi se, hvad det kan bringe med sig!
