Latest bird photos
	4087 (3 photos) Glossy Ibis (Plegadis falcinellus ) Sort Ibis ~ Ibis Cara Oscura 2022-05-16 Kalvebod Fælled, Amager, Denmark Villahøj. With mild winds blowing up from the south the birds are coming too. This breeding plumaged bird was discovered in the morning, but disappeared shortly after, only to be found again at the same spot in the afternoon. The water level right now is excellent for all sorts of waterbirds. Emotional it was too to position myself to be able to take these photos, at the bottom of Villahøj, at the western end of the hillock. Last time I did it, it was to photograph two Black-tailed Godwits that were foraging close by. When I was finished and turned around a young woman was waiting and wanted to talk. Over the next month I got to know her better, and I fell in love with her. But for inexplicable reasons my feelings were not returned, and a few days ago I lost my patience, and decided not to see her again, even though we did have wonderful times together on outings in the region. So, standing here again today, it was very a sad moment for me, and my regrets couldn't have been better expressed symbolically than by this black bird, that was foraging - at a distance and completely ignoring me... It's called the crying game, though there were no tears this time, only a deep worrying concern that there is something very wrong with the way I try to be a part of the real world, where men and women interact and like to be together. Will I be there too, one day!? Rare
	4086 (3 photos) (1 sounds) Red-breasted Flycatcher (Ficedula parva ) Lille Fluesnapper ~ Papamoscas Papirrojo 2022-05-16 Kongelunden, Amager, Denmark Second calendar year. Male. Assuming that eagerly singing migrant birds still follow the traditional belief that such an individual is a male, I conclude the sex as so with this bird. Beside the song, the pale lower mandible assures that this bird is not a Taiga Flycatcher! Found in the SE department by RT, with the slight difference that he has reported it as an adult male rather than a young bird. Perhaps two were present in the same spot, or he just made an assumption based on the strong vocalization... Easier to see than the bird I found last year, and singing more actively. Rare

	4071 (1 photos) European Stonechat (Saxicola rubicola ) Sortstrubet Bynkefugl ~ Tarabillo Europeo 2022-05-08 Melby Overdrev, Sjælland, Denmark Female. But not so easy to get close to in the open landscape.
	4070 (1 photos) European Stonechat (Saxicola rubicola ) Sortstrubet Bynkefugl ~ Tarabillo Europeo 2022-05-08 Melby Overdrev, Sjælland, Denmark Male. Many in the area.

	4066 (1 photos) Bearded Reedling (Panurus biarmicus ) Skægmejse ~ Bigutodo 2022-05-04 Kalvebod Fælled, Amager, Denmark Adult. Female. Hejresøen.

	4062 (2 photos) Common Redshank (Tringa totanus ) Rødben ~ Archibebe Común 2022-05-04 Kalvebod Fælled, Amager, Denmark Villahøj.
	4061 (1 photos) Great Cormorant (Phalacrocorax carbo ) Skarv ~ Cormorán Grande 2022-05-04 Kalvebod Fælled, Amager, Denmark Three young birds with one adult.
	4060 (2 photos) Lesser Whitethroat (Curruca curruca ) Gærdesanger ~ Curruca Zarcerilla 2022-05-04 Kalvebod Fælled, Amager, Denmark Good numbers have arrived in these days.

	4058 (1 photos) Ruff (Calidris pugnax ) Brushane ~ Playero Combatiente 2022-05-04 Kalvebod Fælled, Amager, Denmark Adult. Male. Villahøj.
	4057 (3 photos) Wood Warbler (Phylloscopus sibilatrix ) Skovsanger ~ Mosquitero Silbador 2022-05-04 Kalvebod Fælled, Amager, Denmark Male. Fasanskoven. A singing bird must be a male! Here in Birch wood, probably making it a migrating bird. It's funny to see the bird in photo number two where the strong contrast between the whitish underside and the greenish upperside makes it look like one of the green North American warblers, Chestnut-sided fx.
	4056 (1 photos) Barnacle Goose (Branta leucopsis ) Bramgås ~ Ganso Cariblanco 2022-05-03 Kalvebod Fælled, Amager, Denmark Villahøj. Thousands present in these days.
	4055 (3 photos) Eurasian Skylark (Alauda arvensis ) Sanglærke ~ Alondra Común 2022-04-30 Kalvebod Fælled, Amager, Denmark One dust bathing and another just posing.
	4054 (5 photos) Wood Sandpiper (Tringa glareola ) Tinksmed ~ Playero Andarríos 2022-05-01 Kalvebod Fælled, Amager, Denmark Villahøj. The water level is good for the species this year, why I expect large numbers to roost on their way north. 13 today were the first. All photos show the same bird.
	4053 (1 photos) Wood Sandpiper (Tringa glareola ) Tinksmed ~ Playero Andarríos 2022-04-30 Kalvebod Fælled, Amager, Denmark Adult. Villahøj. Arrived today. With experience even a miniature version like this one is identifiable to species. It's the size, colors and the posture, and of course it helps also knowing that now is the time for them to arrive. Common Greenshank and Green-winged Teal in the background.
	4052 (1 photos) Eurasian Blackbird (Turdus merula ) Solsort ~ Mirlo Común 2022-04-30 Tårnby, Amager, Denmark Adult. Male. Unmistakable both when it comes to the species and the sex. In Denmark at least...
	4051 (2 photos) Eurasian Blackbird (Turdus merula ) Solsort ~ Mirlo Común 2022-04-30 Tårnby, Amager, Denmark Adult. Female. Many blackbirds around this season including this nice female.
	4050 (1 photos) Eurasian Jay (Garrulus glandarius ) Skovskade ~ Arrendajo Euroasiático 2022-04-30 Lunden, Gemmas Allé, Amager, Denmark A species that appears to become more common year after year. Seeing them regularly in human surroundings.
	4049 (2 photos) Red Kite (Milvus milvus ) Rød Glente 2022-04-30 Tømmerupvej, Amager, Denmark Adult. Strange behavior of this bird. Seen flying low from the airport area crossing Tømmerupvej and continuing leisurely sw while looking for food, it appeared. This is the second time I see a Red Kite like this within a few days, why I wonder if it is the same, and whether it plans on staying or not..!? Amager doesn't look like good Kite land for breeding.
	4048 (3 photos) Short-toed Treecreeper (Certhia brachydactyla ) Korttået Træløber ~ Agateador Común 2022-04-30 Kongelundsområdet, Amager, Denmark Adult. Male. Found it by song in the SV department close to the main east-west road, Collin's Alle. And eagerly so singing, which was a surprise because the species has been difficult to find in Kongelunden this year. However, it happened in the afternoon with good sunlight at around 1730, why I would like to speculate that this species might have a different rhythm, making it more active later in the day. I say this because birds in Copenhagen, for example, have been singing readily for a long time this spring. Best field mark in these photos is the white-edged alula. The primary separation does look like something in between Eurasian and Short-toed, but is probably within the normal range for Short-toed, because I have seen it before with limited space between the three inner visible primary tips. Yes I did play the bird a song to attract it, because it was moving away before I got usable photos..!
	4047 (4 photos) Wood Warbler (Phylloscopus sibilatrix ) Skovsanger ~ Mosquitero Silbador 2022-04-30 Kongelundsområdet, Amager, Denmark First this year, one day later than last year.
	4046 (2 photos) Bearded Reedling (Panurus biarmicus ) Skægmejse ~ Bigutodo 2022-04-28 Kalvebod Fælled, Amager, Denmark Adult. Female. Hejresøen. Flexi-tracks - I'm in complete control!

	4043 (2 photos) Eurasian Linnet (Linaria cannabina ) Tornirisk ~ Pardilla Común 2022-04-28 Kalvebod Fælled, Amager, Denmark Adult. Male. Very active around Hejresøen today.

	4038 (1 photos) Eurasian Nuthatch (Sitta europaea ) Spætmejse ~ Trepador Azul 2022-03-12 Kongelundsområdet, Amager, Denmark Probably a male with rufous restricted to the went.
