Nets opened at 0415 and closed at 1100 with 63 new birds of 13 species, including 29 Lesser Whitethroat (Ärtsångare) a new day record.
Almost calm conditions at first light with the wind remaining largely East through the morning and around 3-4 m/s.
Niklas & Janne headed north in the morning and reported good numbers of warblers moving off the island.
I forgot to mention yesterday that Janne saw the Wild Boar north of Saltmar.
There will be four at the Obs overnight: Chris, Kay, Niklas and we are told that Bosse is arriving also.
