Now is the season when birds begin their migration journey. I captured this moment with my impressive Nikon Z9 paired with the 180-600mm zoom lens. The sharpness and clarity of this setup are incredible!
I asked Chatgpt where Swedish birds are moving:
Swedish birds migrate to various locations in the winter, depending on the species. Here are some common migration patterns:
To Southern Europe: Many birds, such as robins and chaffinches, migrate to countries like Spain, France, and Italy, where the winters are milder.
To Africa: Species like the swallow, swift, and cuckoo migrate to sub-Saharan Africa. Swallows, for example, often travel as far as South Africa.
To the Mediterranean region: Birds such as blackbirds and warblers move to the Mediterranean countries (like Greece and Turkey), seeking a more temperate climate.
Short-distance migrants: Some birds, like the bohemian waxwing or goldcrest, may move only within Scandinavia or Central Europe, as they can tolerate cooler climates.
Stayers: Not all birds leave Sweden. Species like great tits, magpies, and blue tits often stay, surviving the winter by finding food locally.
These migratory patterns help birds escape the cold and find food in winter.
