Jag \u00e4r f\u00e5gelsk\u00e5dare, p\u00e5 engelska birdwatcher. Alla birdwatchers \u00e4r i n\u00e5gon grad birdtwitchers, p\u00e5 svenska n\u00e4rmast f\u00e5geldragare – dvs drar sig till speciella f\u00e5glar, intressanta oftast pga s\u00e4llsynthet. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Jag har tr\u00e4ffat p\u00e5 ultimata twitchers fr\u00e5n hemlandet England, enligt d\u00e5tida skr\u00f6nor anst\u00e4llda som resemont\u00f6rer p\u00e5 oljeriggarna i Nordsj\u00f6n. N\u00e4r larmet gick p\u00e5 Fair Isle om en tundrapipl\u00e4rka kunde de enligt kontraktet sl\u00e4nga r\u00f6rt\u00e4ngerna p\u00e5 d\u00e4cket och sig sj\u00e4lva i en helikopter, destination den lilla \u00f6n mellan Orkney och Shetland.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tr\u00e4ffade ett g\u00e4ng commandos p\u00e5 Camli\u00e7a, en kulle i \u00fcskudar i asiatiska Istabul k\u00e4nd f\u00f6r sitt enorma f\u00e5gelstr\u00e4ck. Det var optimal str\u00e4cktid i september-82 och dom var grymma men skulle enligt min reskamrat och \u00f6gonspecialist, Finn vara blinda innan pension. Dom stirrade rakt in i solen med blodspr\u00e4ngda \u00f6gon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Har nog avsl\u00f6jat att jag inte \u00e4r n\u00e5gon twitcher av h\u00f6g klass. Trodde bilen skulle bli ett lyft, men nej, hittar alltid f\u00f6rev\u00e4ndningar f\u00f6r att v\u00e4nta och skjuta upp. Men draget till det ovanliga och s\u00e4llsynta \u00e4r \u00e4nd\u00e5 kraftigt.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

D\u00e4rf\u00f6r startade dagen, 21 maj fint. Buskallt och sv\u00e5rt att hitta l\u00e4 i den friska vinden. Men jag hade bra kl\u00e4der och en fin stol (Eva – f\u00f6rst\u00e5s!). Och massor av f\u00e5glar twitchade mig. Riktigt h\u00f6gg jag p\u00e5 en SVARTN\u00c4BBAD ISLOM i full sommardr\u00e4kt, n\u00e5got av det mest estetiskt tilltalande bland aves. F\u00f6r mer \u00e4n 40 \u00e5r sedan var jag f\u00f6rst att se och rapportera arten i V\u00e4nersborg. N\u00e5gra \u00e5r senare var det dags f\u00f6r repris fast\u00e4n p\u00e5 Gotland. Men man tr\u00f6ttnar aldrig.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Inte heller tr\u00f6ttnar man p\u00e5 svartt\u00e4rnor. S\u00e5g mina f\u00f6rsta i Ask\u00f6viken-76 och har sett tusentals p\u00e5 str\u00e4ck i Grekland. Och idag t\u00e4nkte jag avrunda morronsk\u00e5dningen p\u00e5 Cape Armini med tv\u00e5 grannt utf\u00e4rgade.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

D\u00e5 klingade mobilen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Och jag sitter i V\u00e4stergarn i pool position. En lifer som drar p\u00e5 mig – vava! Halvannan timme i sn\u00e5lbl\u00e5sten. Och en halv dementi, kunde varit typ tj\u00e4der eller orre – sic. S\u00e5 kaffe och v\u00e4rme – h\u00e4rligt. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Och s\u00e5 typiskt f\u00f6r de hektiska f\u00e5gelveckorna i maj. Litet s\u00f6mn och hets-hets. Twitchen driver sk\u00e5dare till galenskapens rand. En del drabbas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

T\u00e4nkv\u00e4rt och mitt snusf\u00f6rnuftiga drag, \u00e4r k\u00e4nn draget av f\u00e5glarna men dras inte med.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
