Another amazing Day at the Fuglestation
Today began with Anton and Antonia opening the mist nets, while Louis, Rose, Frida, Christopher, and I got ready for the daily morning observation. It was a fairly slow morning, but we still spotted 59 Eider Ducks (Ederfugl), 21 Kittiwakes (Ride), 32 Little Gulls (Dværmåge), one Short-Eared Owl (Mosehornugle), and two Parrot Crossbills (Stor Korsnæb). You can find a comprehensive list of all observations here.

In the afternoon, Louis cycled to Skallingen and spotted a Yellow-browed Warbler (Hvidbrynet Løvsanger) together with two Nuthatches (Spætmejse). In the meantime, Rose, Frida, and I took a trip into the forest to collect mushrooms for tonight’s dinner. We also spotted two Eurasian Jays (Skovskade), which brightened the mood even more. Afterwards Rose and Frida prepared a delightful pasta with mushrooms for dinner, which we all cherished with each and every taste.

We enjoyed each other's company, had some hearty laughs, and finished watching the movie we had started yesterday. What an amazing day!
