Ringmærkningen: 

Der var helt vindstille da jeg gik ud og satte nettene op, og vindstille dage er der ikke mange af her nede.

Første runde gav ca 12 fugle, men der efter var der pænt stille resten af dagen.

Dagen gav dog de 20 fugle jeg manglede for at nå min ringmærkede fugl nr 17.000 her nede, så nu er der 1000 fugle til næste runde.

Trækket på Odden: A short (but hopefully sweet) blog from me as I am under the weather with a slight head cold. A still November morning with steady migration today. The conditions were mild and not too cold at the tip for the duration of the count. This was appreciated by some of the more sniffly, slightly unwell migration counters!  Some very pretty ducks out there these days, including Goldeneye/Hvinand, Long-tailed duck/Havlit, and Velvet Scoter/Fløjlsand, to name just a few.  It is really nice to see good numbers of Mallard as well. We are so used to seeing them in ponds of urban parks, so to see them flying over the tip here, in this different context is quite special.

Morten spotted a Short-eared Owl/Mosehornugle over the water, headed West, majestically gliding over the calm sea. An Arctic Tern/Havterne was observed this morning, too. My gratitude to Morten for pointing these out - tak Morten :) Some waders were also noted today – 71 Sanderling/Sandløber, as well as a single Purple Sandpiper/Sortgrå ryle. One Razorbill/Alk, also.
