Title: Sweden / Helsingborg - 2016 / Råger & Linnea
Post by: Alison on March 08, 2016, 23:51

This is one of the older nest sites. There was a webcam at the nest for some years, and then it seemed to disappear.

Last year, a new nest box was built for the birds, and a new cam was added. I believe that the resident male, Råger, is the original male, while Linnea, the resident female, has been there for several years.

In 2015, they raised two chicks; one male, Emmert, and one female, Vetelin.

This year, the cam has been down since January. It began functioning again a few days ago.

I hope this will be a good year for Råger and Linnea.

Thanks for sharing this site, Alison. I have bookmarked it. Does it have night vision cameras?

There is just one camera, but it does have IR capability for night viewing.

Some nest sites are now choosing not to use this capability, since there is some concern that it might be harmful to the birds.
