I have not seen any more activity at that birdhouse so I guess the house was not pleasing. They seem to have choosen an other one.

 This was yesterdays highlight. While I was looking at the Buzzard I noted the little Northern Wheatear on the ground. First one this season. He is a beauty as much as the Buzzard. There was a female too but she did not want to be on camera. :)

About Bearded Reedling on wiki

We were 19 women from the network Rapphönan that was t Hjälstaviken to look for migrating birds. I decided to join in because I wanted to see this bird even if it is not migrating. Sadly I only saw one male up close and briefly, three flying over the path. I would have loved seeing a family. This bird is not common in Sweden. There are only a few places where they stay.
