30-oct A few images from a trip to the west coast last week when it was strong westerly winds and lots of sea-birds passed by.

25-oct I have just started to upload images from the recent trip to Paraguay. Lots to come over the next week or so...

20-oct A Hoopoe was found near Värnamo a few days ago. I managed to twitch it in the late afternoon. I have only seen two before around my hometown, both in 1999. It is a regular but scarce bird in Sweden with a few breeding pairs.

10-oct I simply couldn't resist twitching the Cream-colored Courser on Öland yesterday. Such a cool bird and only the 4th record in Sweden, the last being from 1942!

6-oct I have just started to upload images from the West papua tour in August. Soon pictures from Paraguay will be uploaded as well...

7-sep Images from the first week of September. The Brown Booby was the fifth Swedish record. Unfortunately the bird died only an hour after we saw it.
