a little bit of night birding, some other sounds and Willow Grouse in Bergen!!

 In the morning I visited Unneland, Dyngelandsdalen and Kismul. In the evening I did a round at Kalandsvatnet. All quiet, but I managed some nice sound recordings...

🎤 Common Snipe at kalandsviken

🎤 Common Sandpiper displaying at Unneland

🎤 Common Grasshopper Warbler at Hamre

🎤 Whinchat at Dyngelandsdalen

🎤 Common Starling alarming at nestbox at Kalandsviken

🎤 Eurasian Siskin at Grimseid

🎤 House Martin at Langedalen

🎤 European Goldfinch at Flesland on 04.05

In the morning I saw this Viper at Kismul

On the 18th of May I went up on Austefjell together with my Anne. Lots of wind. After half an hour around one of the ridges on the fjell I saw the Willow Grouse that was reported there before. It was a bit too far to get decent pictures. Besides it disappeared. We couldn't find it back later. Strong winds made the circumstances a bit difficult, especially hearing birds. During searching we saw two Ring Ouzels, five or so displaying Golden Plovers, many Meadow Piptis, two Ravens and a few Northern Wheatears. The Willow Grouse was bird number 200 for Bergen for me. Nice one!!
