Garden birds

I moved to my garden in October 2013. From then and all through 2014 a total of 75 bird species were recorded. Follow the species accumulation on this page.

Reporting species

Sharing my records is important to me. All observations are registered into Birdlife Norway's database artsobservasjoner. My reports are made accessible for anybody through the Species Map Service provided by the Norwegian Biodiversity Centre and GBIF Norway. I will embed the records some time during the autumn of 2015 - when the API's from the database are made available.
