Water levels are high at Klarningen attracting good numbers of teal and other wildfowl.
Home again, having missed some stupendous sea-watching and at least one pallid harrier on the patch during my absence. Went for a look at Klarningen with the family this morning, water levels are up again and there were good numbers of teal (180) and wigeon (57). Also pintail (2), goldeneye (2), little grebe (1), dunlin (9), ruff (27) and greenshank (2). On the fields to the north a single snipe and nine golden plover.
A quick play at Eskilstorpstrand produced a calling crested tit and a flyby dunlin. We drove home past Älemossen and had a flock of 8 mistle thrush.
Looks like the disagreement between the council and the contractors has been settled and they are working to address the various issues with the bird tower. The bad news is the stairs have gone for the moment...
