Varhain aamulla - Early morning


 English below

Olen tällä viikolla useana aamuna herännyt jo yöllä klo neljältä. Ennen viittä olen mennyt lintuilemaan. Viikin luonnonsuojelualueella lenkkeilijät ja pyöräilijät aloittavat hieman ennen kuutta, joten sinne on mentävä aikaisin, jotta ehtii nähdä ja kuulla lintuja, ennen kuin yleinen härdelli alkaa. Aamuyöllä ei tarvitse stressata turvaväleistä, koska ihmisiä on vähän liikkeellä.




Nämä kuvat otin keskiviikkona. Lintuja oli paljon.





Tuona aamuna mukavimmat havaintoni olivat pikkujoutsen ja heinätavi. Tässä postauksessa nyt kuvia vain lapasorsasta (Spatula clypeata). Se on hauskan näköinen lintu.





Klobbenin saaressa pesinyt merikotkapari sai kolme poikasta. Se on suuri määrä poikasia. Ensimmäisessä kuvassa on Klobben. Merikotkakin näkyy kuvassa saaren vasemmassa laidassa pesän päällä istumassa. Kyseisessä pienessä saaressa pesii merikotkan lisäksi harmaahaikaroita ja merimetsoja.Kuvan saa isommaksi klikkaamalla kuvaa.


Greylag goose and Northern Shoveler. Merihanhia ja lapasorsa.




This week I am woke up several morning at 4.00 am. Before 5.00 I’ve gone birding. You don't have to stress about safety distance in the early hours (there are no peoples so early). These are some photos I took on Wednesday in Viikki nature reserve area. There were a lot of birds. That morning my nicest sighting was a Tundra swan and Garganey. In this post are now only photos of Northern Shoveler. It is a funny looking bird.

I have written in previous post about White-tailed eagles nesting in Helsinki. Those eagles have three chicks now. That’s a lot of chicks. Usually the white-tailed eagle only gets one or two chicks.


The first photo shows Klobben’s island. White-tailed eagle can also be seen in the photo on the left side of the island sitting on the nest. In that small island are nesting also Gray herons and Great cormorants.

  7. That must be wonderful to have nesting Sea Eagles. Interesting about wagtails. Do you have both White Wagtails and Pied Wagtails? Here the Pied is a resident, the White a migrant.

    1. Hello Phil. Thank you for your comment. We have White wagtail. The darker subspecies, Pied wagtail, is not resident here. Sometimes you can see a hybrid here: alba x yarrellii.

  8. Hello,
    It is a good idea to get outside early and avoid the crowds. You saw some great birds, ducks and geese. I like the comical Northern Shoveler and the Greylag geese are cute too. I can see the eagle nest, very cool. Great series of photos. Take care! Thank you for linking up and sharing your post. Enjoy your day, have a happy weekend! PS, your visit and comment are very appreciated.

  12. Lapasorsat ovat hassun näköisiä. Miten hienoa, että lähdet aikaiseen aamusta luontoon! Pitäisi itsekin tehdä niin. Lintujen laulu on varmaan mahtavaa aamulla.

  18. The photography is beautiful, and the range of waterfowl on these northern lakes is impressive. A Northern Shoveler is always a great find.
