In the end of July the Lapwings are gathering. When they take to the wings they actually glitters in the sky.

Osprey with a catch

Fiskgjuse - Pandion haliaetus - Osprey

I took a day trip to Hjälstaviken to try to catch Bearded Reedling. But they did not appear at all. Luckily somebody else did. With a catch of it´s own. So, like the Osprey, I did not go home empty handed.

This day I was really out trying to get shots of the Grey Wagtail that stays a couple of km from my home. (a post of it HERE) Then, out of the blue, literally, this beauty landed on a dead birch just a few meters in front of me. And a perfectly fit in my camera lens too. Some days you are lucky. The last shot it passed me rather close.

Birding today

Sjöholmsladan wetland, NF Photo 120423
This is one of the places outside town where I can see some migrating birds.

Årta - Anas querquedula - Garganey

In that pond I saw this annoying bird today. So hard to get a shot of it. Every time I push the trigger it is gone. It is a small duck and hides in the grass or reed. And don´t want to be shot at. :(

Fiskgjuse - Pandion haliaetus - Osprey
Leaving the place I heard a sound above. Looking up to see this osprey. :)

Sävsparv – emberiza schoeniclus - Reed Bunting
Next place I found this reed bunting singing his heart out. I did not see if there were any females around to hear it.

Svarthakedopping - Podiceps auritus - Horned Grebe

The grebes went golden. I forgot to change the white balance. It was set to shadow and the sun was shining. I think that made this golden color. I kind of like it though, it suits the birds. :)

Fiskgjuse - Pandion haliaetus - Osprey

NF Photo 110812 at Valla viltvatten

I had seen this Osprey earlier when it was leaving the little wetland. I was looking elsewhere and did not see it coming back. I guess I reacted to the splash from the dive and turned to shoot. And had the bird coming right at me from behind the reed. Instinctly I pulled the trigger and this is the actual shot. SOOC as they call it. Too bad I did not catch the entire face. That would have been cool.

Here I had time to turn around. It is not perfectly sharp but you can see the big fish it is holding.

And then it headed away to another bird high up in the air. Maybe a juvie.

Birding at Vadsjön

click to enlarge

Today I invite you to my birdblog. And hope you will like it. :)
Earlier this week I visited Vadsjön. A small lake and wetland system in Nyköping area. I had not been there before so it was interesting. It was not that much birds. Geeze, of course, and some ducks species. That´s the place where I found the Svartsnäppa - Spotted Redshank in the post below. And... most wetlands has its prey of bird. In this case I found a beautiful Fiskgjuse -Osprey when I looked at the sky.
