The Fieldfare has a busy time feeding the young. The parent feed the young with a BIG worm and yet the young immediately begs for more. It´s hunger don´t seem to ever stop.

A beautiful bird flying over my head when I stood on the birding tower at Rysjön, Kvismaren Bird Observatory. I was able to enjoy this one for more then 20 min. I hope you enjoy it too.

Skrattmås - Larus ridibubdus - Black-headed Gull

NF Photo  130517 Djulö Kvarn, Katrineholm

A very common gull but this one was differently colored in the head. And it was alone!
I don´t know if it is a Leucistic or just not finished it´s plumage.

This is a bird that gives me much joy. So fun to try to catch them as they fly over your head. You can get a bit dizzy by this activity though,

Storlom - Gavia arctica - Black-throated Loon

NF Photo  130426, Pensionat Udden

 At the edge of the ice this beauty is swimming. The Loon. Later on it was joined by it´s mate but then they were too far off to get a shot.
 Note! It is not BW images. It was a mostly grey day with ice on the water. And not much color on the bird.

A pair of Moorhens stays in the pond where the Horned Grebe stays. They have been there for a week now. I cross my fingers that they will stay and breed. Then I have a chance to see young. I have never seen that before so that would be nice.

Sånglärka - Alauda arvensis - Common Skylark

NF Photo  130404

I love spring! Where I live there are not a lot of birds so instead of chasing species I try to document what they do. This was the day when I photographed the Snow Buntings but I spent time with the skylark as well. You can´t really get them up close in this situation but I had a lot of fun capturing the airborne games. Those guys are really fast, make quick turns and always makes me laugh! For now I wonder if any of them nested.
