Population monitoring at Jomfruland and Lista Bird Observatories in 2015 (14.03.2016)
In 2015 the ringing numbers for common species was lower than normal, especially in autumn at Lista. This is due to the poor breeding season, as the spring was dominated by high rainfall and low temperatures in May and June. The annual ringing results were, however, somehow compensated by a record incidence of Goldcrest.

Not all geolocators might have a negative effect on survival (25.02.2016)
On February 1st a new study was published on Journal of Avian Biology. The title of the article is “An experimental evaluation of the effects of geolocator design and attachment method on between-year survival on Whinchats Saxicola rubetra”. This article shows that not all geolocators might have a negative effect on Whinchat's survival, but that different materials and techniques might affect significantly the biology of small migratory birds.

Tilbakegang i hekkebestander av vadefugler (02.02.2016)
I dag, 2. februar, er det Verdens Våtmarksdag - en mulighet til å markere viktigheten av våtmarkene i Slevdalsvann naturreservat, som ligger i et strategisk viktig fugleområde som mange av de norske trekkfuglene passerer gjennom under trekket vår og høst. Fuglene kan hvile før og etter de har krysset Nordsjøen, og hvor de kan finne både mat, beskyttelse og egnede hekkehabitat.

Different subspecies had different strategies for male Wheatears to arrive breeding grounds before the females. (18.11.2015)
On September 29 a new article about migration in Wheaters was published in the prestigious scientific journal, Behavioral Ecology, from Oxford University. The article studied the migration of Wheaters from different subspecies. We have had the pleasure to contribute to it with our ringing data from 511 wheatears ringed at Lista Bird Observatory during 24 years.

REPORT October 2015 (06.11.2015)
A total of 1306 birds were ringed during October on the standardized protocol (626 birds less than in 2014). In broad terms the month has been on temperature average and much drier than average, in contrast with September which was much wetter than normal. Compared to all months in 2015 which have resulted in very low numbers on the standardized trapping, October has been one of the best months but still 19% below average.
