How is your 2020 List Going? (4 Viewers)

With no strict lock down in the state (but where are those other drivers all going?) got to the nearby places within the county. I will also be able to check the in town lake by bike once the weather gets a bit warmer daily (the wind gets you on a bike). There is one state life in this list.

3 new ones from yesterday and one from today, all near Uppsala:

149. Red-necked Grebe
150. Slavonian Grebe

I'm surprised that heron stayed there almost a week, there are just tons of walkers and fishermen and even kayakers there at the middle of the city lake. There are plenty of quiet ponds in the county.

Migrants are trickling in. I found one new bird for the year this morning, plus a couple of others I saw in Mexico last month but which are new for my state and county year totals.

271. White-eyed Vireo
