Meanwhile in Stockholm

Meanwhile in Stockholm I havn't been able to do as much birding as I had hoped to do. A fair attempt to rise early last Saturday was cut short when I realized that the rain was pouring down at 5:30 in the morning and that the bed was just two steps away from the window.

I have however managed to take a morning stroll through our old patch in Tantolunden. The weather was better then and I enjoyed the plenty of spring birding. Late May is a really good time to get out and enjoy nature, even if it is just the old park area in your home town.

The highlight if the walk was probably the warblers and the European Goldfinches that I heard and saw. All the trees seem to be in bloom as well, making a beautiful backdrop to any walk in the park.



Bird of the day: European Goldfinch - Steglits - Stieglitz/Distelfink - Carduelis carduelis
