Some birds on the road

De här ljungpiparna såg jag inte förrän en annan skådare påpekade att de var där. De rörde sig överhuvudtaget inte så jag hade trott de var jordhögar. Jag var ju inte så nära då. De vilade sig på väg norrut.
These Golden Plovers was completely motionless so I did not see them until another birder showed me. I had thought it was lumps of dirt. I was not that close then. I was able to come rather close before I noticed I disturbed them. They are now up north somewhere. :)


 Ejder - Somateria mollissima - Common Eider

 Storskrake - Mergus merganser - Common Merganser/Goosander

Rödhake - Erithacus rubecula - European Robin

Some of the birds I´ve seen lately. If you are interested of the trip to Hummelvik, a small fishing village at the coast, where I saw the robin, Eider and Mergansers, you can visit my Travel blog. The post is HERE

If I am not responding to comments quickly it is because I am on my way to Öland and Ottenby bird observatory, a Bird Migrating paradise in Sweden. So I hope my next weeks entry will be about that.
