Saturday, September 13, 2008 - A picture from Padjelanta - at least something :)
Not exactly a lot of blogging lately. Lots of stuff in need of being done, but also quite a lot of birding going unmentioned. Lifers since last post: Sabine's Gull at Kråkudden, September 3. Spotted migrating south at 2 kilometers distance or so. I would probably have missed it or taken it for a Little Gull if I was there alone. Also, finally, Hen Harrier at Brudarebacken. A beautiful adult male, less than a hundred yards away, going past us fairly slowly.
And here's while waiting for more; a first picture from the Padjelanta trip. This particular photograph taken just outside Jokkmokk town.
 Siberian Jay (Perisoreus infaustus)

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...
