SWEDEN - 18th June

Thick fog first thing gave way to a scorcher after 08:00 – very hot and sunny; a few new bits as we looked over Fågelsjön including two singing Marsh Warblers, a singing Icterine Warbler, two Black Woodpeckers showing well, a single drake Pintail in with big numbers of Teal, Mallard and Gadwall, the odd Spotted Redshank, Ruff and Wood Sandpiper, good flight views of a Bittern over the road, singing Thrush Nightingales in almost every little copse and all the other [now] usual things that are really cool but I’ll stop mentioning them every day!

Common Tern

Marsh Warbler

Black Woodpecker
