European Nightjar - Nattskärra (Caprimulgus europaeus)

Den här bloggen kommer att handla om mitt projekt med Nattskärror i mellersta Kalmar län. Projektet går ut på att fånga och ringmärka Nattskärrorna för att studera flyttvägar, ortstrohet, övervintringsområden, biotop samt inventering av befintligt bestånd. -------------------------------- This blog will be about my project with Nightjars in central Kalmar county. The project aims to capture and ring Nightjars to study the migratory routes, local loyalty, wintering areas and habitat.

Nice Nightjar night.

Yesterday I went out to an area there I have catch many nightjars before. Immediately I hear shurring Nightjars and I quickly put up my net and catch the first this night. When the morning comes I could sum 7 ringed Nightjars of at least 19 heard birds and I have a nice experience this night.
I even heard two Tengmalm´s Owls when they sing at the night.
