Whooper swans as and juv Photographed in Hornborgasjön 7 years ago.
Hornborgasjön is famous for the "Cranedance" during migration in spring. Lots of cranes and swans at that time of year.

Walked by the old anthill on my forestwalk a couple of days ago. This one is a mark that tells you it is a healthy forest. I´m just a bit confused whay the pigs seem to leave it alone. They destroyed many of my mushroom places. The number of ants on the ground stops me from trying to get closeups.

This little snake, we call snok, tried to get up the side, but of course, it can´t climb a concrete side like this so, it ended in the water below. Flushed away. It was looking for fish.

I visited the flowerfield and, for once, used the BW apps in my camera. Still had to do some adjustments to get the look I wanted. :)

The smallest lizard I have ever seen. Think it´s called forest lizard. Was really hard to catch on camera.

Common darter.
Dragonflies are back! This one usually comes in large numbers.

Fallow deers are back in the field, but soo hard to spot. This field is a mess. :(

I saw this biking woman just entering the slope down to the tunnel. :) I caught her right at the edge.
Normally I don´t do street photography, But sometimes it is fun.

Wildlife in my files

Click image to enlarge!

I think this is a muskrat - Bisamråtta. This was the only time I know I have seen it. It is not native to Sweden. Saw it in Kvismaren, a Nature reserve.

Eurasian curlew - storspov

Red-necked grebe, building a nest - Gråhakedopping- bygger bo

Red-necked grebe - Gråhakedopping
A rare bird to see in Sweden. And when I see it it is way to far out on the lake.

Today I have been diving in my files. It is quite fun actually. This is old shots but I have probably not posted them. The curlew and the grebe is shot with a 500 mm lens so not a too good quality compared with todays shots.
