As yesterday not much wind and clouded sky, good for catching birds. But because there was no real influx of birds overnight, the result was 16 birds (11 new and 5 recaptures). But in the last rounds two surprises. The first one was a Red-Breasted Flycatcher (not so colourfull, because it was not an adult male (see picture), but nevertheless a very good species to ring. And the second was a Red-Backed Shrike (Rødrygget Tornskade). Both species were the first of this year at this location.

We caugth 14 moths this night (10 species, see table). Two species were new the Bright-line Brown-eye (Haveugle, see piture) and the V-Pug (V-Dværgmåler), both rather common species in Demark.

Joakim left today and goes tomorrow to Scotland for work (guiding some people) and looking for Nessie, the monster of Loch Ness. I will stay for 5 days more.

With kind regards and till tomorrow
