Birding on the west coast of Sweden

Thursday, August 14, 2008 - Shearwaters galore

Posted in Rarities
On Monday I life ticked Manx Shearwater and today saw another one and also life ticked Balearic Shearwater. If we'd stayed at Kråkudden for another fifteen minutes, I could have life ticked Sooty Shearwater and two hours later came a Cory's Shearwater. Good day for shearwaters to say the least.

About Me

27 year old birder from Gothenburg, Sweden. Last year we twitched for year ticks. I ended up with 250 which is more than I had lifers when the year started. This year I'll go fairly easy on the year ticks (Though anything under 200 is shameful) but will instead aim for 300 life ticks in Sweden. A task and a half probably...
