Another calm and warm day at Skagen The day started with a win, as on our way to Lands End III this morning Emma and I heard Grasshopper Warbler (Græshoppesanger) singing, a new bird for my life list!...


Ringmærkningen: Alt så godt ud så alt kom op. Der lå dog regn over en del af det nordlige Tyskland som blev større og større, men det blev over Tyskland og ude over vandet. En vagtel blev hørt...

Vejr kl. 05.00: S 1 m/s, 8/8, +14 grader <1km sigt. Morgenen startede køligere end i går og allerede på vej til Blåvand kunne jeg se at det nok ikke ville blive den klareste dag. Det er fint til...


Updated July 2025; originally published July 2014. By midsummer many young-of-the-year songbirds have fledged from their nests. Almost overnight, the fields and forests seem to fill up with nondescript, unfamiliar-looking... Read more »


De fleste av oss liker fugler, men tar dem ofte for gitt. Når noen spør hvorfor vi egentlig skal bry oss, kan det være vanskelig å svare på strak arm. Likevel finnes det klare svar, og det handler ikke om følelser, men om helt konkrete forhold. Å ta vare på dem er faktisk å ta vare på oss selv.


Ringmærkningen: Det var virkelig mørkt da nettene skulle op men et hurtigt kig på radaren og der var intet. Et kig på prognosen sagde der kunne komme regn ved 6, så jeg satte kun 125 meter net op. Jeg...


In the morning, we all left for the migration count at Word?s End III. The weather was calm. We started with a slow movement of Scoters (Sortand). Then migration activity picked up a bit, with some Sandwich...


Vejr kl. 5.00: NNV 6 m/s, 8/8, +18 grader, 5 km sigt. NNV giver ikke ligefrem gardiner af vadere over havet og af samme årsag, valgte jeg i dag at åbne net, nogle dage før sæsonstart. Der kan godt...


Årets stjerne i DOF BirdLifes ØrneTV, den unge havørn, har vinket farvel til sin fædrene rede ved Hyllekrog på Lolland. Men den holder til i nabolaget, og vil i ny og næ besøge barndomshjemmet.


Our day began with Hanelie and me heading out early for a round of ringing at Kabeltromlen again. While walking between the nets, we suddenly heard a Grasshopper Warbler (Græshoppesanger) singing nearby...


Ringmærkningen: Der kom ikke helt så meget vind som lovet, og der var halvskyet så vejret var fint til fangst. Dagens fugle kom stille og roligt dryssende indtil 8.30 og der efter var de 2 sidste runder...


Jeg valgte at stå meget tidligt op i dag og kørte mod stationen allerede kl. 2:30, så jeg kunne lave halvanden times lyslokning efter natsværmere. Jeg kom derud og fik tændt for lampen, som desværre...


Before I post on the, so far, rather limited birding that Bodø and Nordland has had to offer I will first try to enthral you with a butterfly post. I don’t think I will be able to convey quite how exciting the last three days have been but I finally hit jackpot with the northern butterflies that I have always wanted to see. I had some success in 2022 when we were last here but there has always been one species I have dreamt of seeing and which has eluded me. Lapland Fritillary (iduns rutevinge) has a southern outpost at Graddis which is south of Bodø but still north of the Arctic Circle. It is a species that has a two year cycle and sightings at Graddis seem to only be in odd numbered years. I did try in 2019 but failed in my quest even though others had seen the species that year. As I set off early on Sunday I could see that the weather would at least not be a reason for failure as it was very hot and sunny. It was an hour and 40 minute drive and I was full of anticipation. I am not the only person to previously visit Graddis and come away disappointed but I knew that in 2023 people had been successful and I just felt that now it was my turn. There were far fewer butterflies flying than on 2019 visit but this time it was the definition of quality over quantity. Lapland Fritillary was pretty much the first butterfly I saw although it took a while to get photos. Once I did find a settled individual I was able to fill my boots and then start noticing other species, and boy were them some good ones. Arctic/Glandon Blue (polar blåvinge) was a species I didn’t realistically expect to find but I did🥳 and I knew Freija Fritillary (frøyas perlemorvinge) was more realistic and with only a handfull of fritillaries flying I was soon able to find a couple of Freija alongside Small Pearl-bordered (brunflekket) and Cranberry (myr). So that was three new species in about 10 minutes and all within a radius of around 20 metres!!!! There were also Norse Graylings (nornens ringvinge) which I have seen once previously. There is still one species I need that has historically been recorded in the area - Arctic Ringlet (disas ringvinge) - but there are no recent records I know of so it may have vanished from the area. It is good to have a reason to visit the area again though. Yesterday, I persuaded Jr to come for a walk with me and The Beast to Sulis which is where I had 2 successful 2022 outings. My sell in to Jr was that we would escape the 29C heat forecast at the cabin but it was hardly any cooler there despite being being at around 900m altitude except for when we found snow which was still plentiful. The alpine meadows here are fantastic but butterflies were very scarce. I did find 2 Alpine Grizzled Skippers (polar smyger) and one Northern Clouded Yellow (mjeltgulvinge) and some fast flying white butterflies were probably Pale Arctic Clouded Yellows (polar gulvinge) but there were also surprisingly Green-veined White (rappringvinge) up there so I could not be sure. I decided for a return trip this morning on my own and early enough that hopefully any clouded yellows of any species were not just flying past as great speed. Even though I was there by 0845 there was not much landing going on! It was not easy working out what I was seeing except for the orange coloured Northern Clouded Yellows. The first couple of white butterflies were probably Green-veined Whites and then there was a clouded yellow but it tuned out to be a female Moorland but finally I managed a blurry photo of a Pale Arctic. It felt quite made to have all three of the Norwegian clouded yellows species in exactly the same area. Celebrating afterwards with an ice cream down in the valley I saw that the waste ground next to the shop car park was alive with butterflies and had 6 species of blues and my first Purple-edged Copper (purpurgullvinge) of the year - I seem to have really fallen in favour with the Butterfly Gods right now😊 (although I suspect that this will be noted by the Birds Gods who will frown on me for the rest of the summer…). Graddis (Junkerdalen) first: Arctic Blue and Freija Fritillary habitat And Lapland Fritillary and Norse Grayling habitat Vanilla-scented Bog Orchid (fjellhvitkurle) Lapland Fritillary (iduns rutevinge) Arctic/Glandon Blue (polarblåvinge) Freija Fritillary (frøyas perlemorvinge) Well camouflaged Norse Grayling (nornens ringvinge) Moorland Clouded Yellows (myrgulvinge) And Sulis (Sulitjelma) View looking west with Sulitjelma in the valley We had to traverse quite steep and hard snow alpine meadow Northern Clouded Yellow (mjeltgulvinge) Pale Arctic Clouded Yellow (polargulvinge) Taking pictures as they flew past was a real struggle but some were Good enough for ID D and a different more poorly marked individual (a female) but still identifiable And a Moorland Clouded Yellow (myrgulvinge) fly past in exactly the same spot as I saw and photographed the two rarer species And another white butterfly fly past which looks to be a Green-veined White (rapssommerfugl) despite its way of flying making me think it was a Pale Arctic Clouded Yellow And here some slightly better and more identifiable pictures of a Green-veined White. They are of a northern from which is darker than those in the south Alpine Grizzled Skipper (polarsmyger), an egg laying female And butterflies from the shop car park A better shot of a Green-veined White And the underside of a Purple-edged Copper (purpurgullvinge)


Et nytt lovforslag skal hindre nedbygging av myr, men åpner for at kommunene kan gjøre unntak. Det svekker vernet av våre viktigste karbonlagre og levesteder for truet naturmangfold. BirdLife Norge jobber for et sterkt nasjonalt forbud med Statsforvalteren som myndighet til å gi dispensasjoner når det er helt nødvendig.

On the 15th of July the standardized 4-hour morning observations start after the summer break. Emma and I went to World´s end three this morning and started the sea migration count. We had some Common...


Det var en utrolig lummer morgen. Allerede da jeg steg ud af bilen, blev jeg ramt af varmen, og jeg tog det første af obsen kun i t-shirt. Meget rart, når man tænker tilbage på de dage i foråret,...


Det var en god dag på obsen i dag. Med vinden fra ØNØ var forholdene helt okay til vader ? og de spildte ikke chancen for at trække i den østlige vind. Vi havde nemlig en del vader igennem, både...


DOF BirdLife får hver sommer henvendelser om døde tårnfalke, der er druknet i deres forsøg på at slukke tørsten i åbne drikketrug til heste og kreaturer. Læg et bræt eller et stykke træ i drikketruget, så fugle selv kan komme op, hvis de plumper i, lyder det fra DOF BirdLife.


Today was CES day. We went to Cormorant Lake for bird ringing. Our first round was accompanied by a lovely young bird ? a juvenile Bluethroat (Blåhals). Throughout the morning, we caught many Reed Warblers...
