Mostly dry areas "inside" the reed. All this green should be filled with water. :(

I went to Sjöholm to see if there would be any migrating Common Snipes. Below the barn is a small waterfilld wetland. Or, should be. Half of it has dried out this summer. Still, there was enough water to host about 15 Snipes, some Greylag goose and Lapwings. But it was the Snipes that interested me. I like those cool birds with the long bills. And I was happy to see them

Hello, the Snipes are one of my favorite birds. Pretty views of the field, wetland and the birds. Happy Monday, enjoy your new week!
ReplyDeleteVery picturesque. Pity the wetland is much drier than usual but pleased you got to see some snipes.
ReplyDeleteNice that your visit was not for naught as you got sighting of birds.

Great to see them in the open like that. The ones I see in Autumn and Winter are usually hiding amongst the reeds.

I like the color of the dried grass. It contrasts nicely with the color of the sky. #OurWorldTuesday
