This pair was very entertaining for a while. It is mating time for them too. I was surprised when I saw one of them lift up the tail in the same fasion as wrens do. 
If you look closely at the last image you see two birds. The one to the left is the same as the bird that is landing in the image above.

A few of the Robins stays in Sweden during winter and so do Siskins. The grey wagtail migrates and they have been here a few days. This pair just decided for a place to nest. I think I know where.

I met a beautiful Robin today and then I remembered I had a few images from a little family from July 10. Here they are. :)

I saw this blackbird male on my morning walk today. He was sitting in backlight that enhanced his bill nicely. The little Robin sits quite well in that tree. Suitable colors for it I think.

Some birds on the road

Ljungpipare - Pluvialis apricaria - European golden plover
NF Photo 120412, Skåra viken, Nyköping

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

Fisktärna - Sterna hirundo - Common Tern

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. 
If you can´t comment with the previous settings, please go to CR Birds and tell me.

Rödhaken värmer sig i den lågtstående vintersolen. Det var första gången jag sett en vintertid.  
European Robin warms itself in the low winter sun. The first time I saw one in winter.

Cold and tired

I visited Öland and the Bird Observatory Ottenby this weekend. Birds are migrating north now. And as it was very misty, rainy and cold this weekend they had a tough trip coming up from Europe to Sweden, across the southern part of the Baltic sea.

Rödhake - Erithacus rubecula - European Robin, NF Photo 100515 at Ottenby

Somebody said this is a Lövsångare - Phylloscopus trochilus - Willow Warbler
But looking in the book I think it might be a Grönsångare - Phylloscopus sibilatrix - Wood Warbler


If you know for sure, please tell me. But whatever species, both are  cold. :(
