Description: Larissa worked in 2019 at the Ottenby Bird Observatory on the island of Öland off the southeast coast of Sweden. She will talk about the area, the observatory, their long-term bird banding, their work creating a digital guide for ageing and sexing birds, and the various projects she worked on, including one of the best surveys she has ever done. Birds mentioned will include European Robins, Goldcrests, Northern Lapwings (adult and fluffy chicks), many Mallards and much more.

The following steps are for any member who wants to organize an event/outing for the FNC:
Step 1. Check the meetings page and make sure there are no other events/outings planned on the date you are planning your event.
Step 2. Fill out and submit our form for events/outings.
Step 3. Wait for a response from the executive.
The reason for this process is to make sure that all events/outings are authorized by the FNC for insurance purposes. Also, to make sure events/outings do not overlap.
