Aamuhavaintoja


English text is the bottom of post.

Tänään aamulla Viikissä parhain havainto oli mustapyrstökuiri – jota en olisi edes havainnut ilman muiden harrastajien apua. Kahlaajia ei ole vielä kovin paljon. Haviksia tälle vuodelle 59.


Aamulla. Today morning.

Klobbenilla melko iso parvi merimetsoja pyrkii valloittamaan harmaahaikaroiden pesintäpuut. Kiintoisaa nähdä onnistuvatko.

Grey herons, Lesser Black-backed Gull, European Herring gull. Harmaahaikaroita, sekälokki ja harmaalokki.


Black bird in the air is Great Cormorant. Merimetso syöksähti häiritsemään lintuja.


Isokoskelo. Goosander.

Common Snipe. Taivaanvuohi.


Tämän laulujoutsenen kuvasin jo 28.3. Se on saanut reiän otsaansa.


Swan has hole in its forehead. Photo I took 28.3.


My dog Malla

Vantaa River 30.3.


Today morning in the Viikki Nature Reserve area, the best bird I saw, was the Black-tailed Godwit. The other birders helped me to see it. Quite a big flock of cormorants is trying to conquer the Grey Herons nesting trees. Interesting to see how it goes. 
 
Waders are still not very much. I have only 59 bird species in my year list.

    1. Hello Eileen. Thank you for your comment. The swan - maybe another bird has hit the hole. Sad thing.

  2. Great photos. The swan, poor thing. We have a deer with a dislocated knee. It pains me to watch.
    I like the graylags, in the previous post. We have a couple around here!

    1. Hello Adam. Yes, it is a Whooper Swan. It was alone when I saw it. Not good. I think that another bird has hit the hole...

  13. I like seeing your returning birds Anu. I’m glad Spring is coming. I hope the cormorants do not disturb the heron nests. I like the goosanders. That poor swan, I wonder what happened to it?
