NF Photo 111002, Höllviken,  Falsterbo

I found this guy close to the hotel, in Falsterbo, we stayed in. On the shore that turns toward Denmark. I only spotted 2 of them this evening. It was getting dark as it was after dinner. Due to the setting sun there is a slight glow on teh bird. A new bird on my blog. :)

Today I show you a little bird that turned out to be surprisingly beautiful. I have seen it once before in a distance. So I did not really see what it looked like then. But now, up close, I could really see it´s beauty. Isn´t it great to visit a ringing session? This bird is rare where I live so this was great. Later on we also spotted one in some bushes at the shore. Maybe the same one? Who knows? :)

Early morning and a gull seems to wonder where the ocean is

 Storspov - Eurasian Curlew against a still grey sky.

Finally, in the afternoon the sun came out, and most geeze is on the ground.
There was thousands of Barnacle Goose (vitkindad gås) and one Brent Goose (prutgås), in the middle of the shot.
