Regjeringen har delt ut 57 nye utvinningstillatelser for olje og gass. Flere av disse ligger i havområder som er definert som særlig verdifulle og sårbare (SVO). Dette skjer til tross for klare faglige råd om å skjerme områdene. BirdLife Norge advarer mot alvorlige konsekvenser for sjøfugler, nøkkelarter og økosystemer.

The last week of January has been quite like the preceding three, i.e uninspiring, with the exception of reacquainting myself with my Hazel Grouse. We can now look forward to February with hopefully some cloudless, freezing cold, nocturnal trips interrupted only by the sound of trees cracking in the cold, owls of various sightings hooting and northern lights flickering overhead. By the end of the month the very first spring migrants will also with luck have arrived and then we can really look forward to the spring and all the bounties it brings. I have had a few walks in the forest but it is incredibly quiet there with, other than the HG, hardly a bird to see or hear. There are ZERO finches in the forest and even in more suburban areas with feeders there are hardly any so a flock of 18 Hawfinches that I came across at Østensjøvannet one day was quite a surprise. A noisy Nutcracker (nøttekråke) was one of only a handfull of birds seen on my forest walks but it is always a good bird to see. the Pygmy Owl (spurveugle) has become harder to see again and when it does give itself up it is usually high up as here with a Magpie (skjære) Mallards (stokkand) at Østensjøvannet where this female Teal (krikkand) is still hanging around and where with some patience Water Rails (vannrike) can be seem an unusually large flock of Hawfinch (kjernebiter) Woodpeckers are not really making themselves known yet although I have heard a drumming Great Spotted and this female Black Woodpecker was making a lot of noise hacking away at a dead tree trunk these are still entertaining me

In my last post on Hazel Grouse I wrote about how “my” reliable and easily accessible pair had vanished with my last sighting in the early spring of 2024. I have only visited the area a few times since then but have drawn a blank each time but have always had high hopes that I would find birds again as I consider the habitat to be absolutely perfect for the species. Getting a bit tired of searching for Jack Snipe and Pygmy Owl yesterdy I wanted a change of scenery and a walk in the forest and decided to head for the Hazel Grouse area. The forest is dead silent this winter with NO finches of any description and even tits are hard to come by. It therefore brought a huge smile to my face when I heard the thin whistle of a male HG. And it was in exactly the same trees where I have had many close encounters with “my” pair. With it being close to two years since my last sighting here I naturally assumed that this was a new pair that had taken over this prime piece of real estate but they were a very confiding pair allowing me to stand under them and noisily crunch around in the snow (this was behaviour that the previous pair displayed but which I do not otherwise associate with the generally shy species). I then checked my photos and the male lacks an obvious red eyebrow exactly as the previous male did and the female has a particularly dark throat as the previous female did. So, are they same birds that have just evaded me for all this time? Is one of them the same and has brought a new mate back to the territory or are they both new birds? I guess we can never know for sure but if they hang around through the spring then their behaviour and especially how close they allow me to approach will give some strong indications. Today, Thursday, I paid another visit and found the male feeding on the ground. He allowed such close approach that I am feeling quite confident that it is my boy. Most importantly it looks like I may be able to add Hazel Grouse back onto my list of highly likely species for guiding 😊 male Hazel Grouse (jerpe) and the female. Her dark throat can be seen better in the video below

Giftdøden blandt danske rovfugle fortsætter, uden at det endnu er lykkedes politiet at afsløre gerningsmændene bag de senere års tocifrede antal forgiftninger af ørne med insektgiften carbofuran. Senest er en havørn og en musvåge på Midtsjælland fundet døde efter at have ædt fjerkræ, der var lagt ud som forgiftet lokkemad. DOF BirdLife ser frem til, at en ny specialiseret politienhed til opklaring af natur-og faunakriminalitet kommer i funktion i 2026.

11. juli 2025 ble en krøllpelikan (Dalmatian Pelican, Pelecanus crispus) oppdaget på et skjær utenfor Hernyken på Røst. God fotodokumentasjon bekreftet at dette var samme individ som hadde turnert Sverige og Finland siden 9. juni.

I milde vintre er vandriksen rørsumpens og søbreddernes skjulte fugl, mens isfuglen er en sky spydfisker ved ferske vande. Når frosten lægger låg på sumpe og søer kommer de to reserverede arter mere frit frem. På DOFbasen kan man følge et stigende antal observationer af vandrikse og isfugl i disse uger.
