    Are you sure? That would be a remarkably early record for inland Germany.

    I'm back in Uppsala for my final few weeks in Sweden before I move to my new job in Hungary. 215. Sedge Warbler A surprisingly difficult bird to get on Öland, so I usually have to wait until I get off the island to see it.

    Finally got round to twitching a Corn Bunting that has been hanging around a few miles from our field station. It's a rare bird in Sweden, only breeding in a very small part of the far south of the country. Though this year, Öland has seen an influx. It was also a Swedish lifer for me. 212...
