There seem to be sometning wrong with the eye on this little guy. To bad I could not get closer to be sure. But it looks strange around the eye and bill.

I and a fried went to the coast yesterday to check on the birds. There is supposed to be a Ring-necked Duck in the harbour area. As this is an American duck it is very rare in Sweden. There was probably more then 1000 tufted ducks to chack out in order to find the Ring-necked one. We spend 4h looking for it but failed. But then, of course, half way home we got word it was sighted. My friend was not to happy then. We did not have time to turn around and go back.
Shadow Shot Sunday There are shadows here and there even if not that obvious.

A few birds this week

This little family saved my day. Hardly any birds anywhere and then I spotted theese in a distance. And luckily they swam my way. They were so fun to watch as they swam upstreams. When any of the hatchlings slacked behind it started to run on the water to get to mom, then jumped up on her back. You should have seen them running the watersurface. So fun. The only bad thing is they were on the other side of the stream so I could not get a closeup. :)

I found the song Trush and the Flycatcher in the forest and the Sedge Warbler sang loudly in the reed and bush at the water edge.
If you can´t comment with the previous settings, please go to CR Birds and tell me.
