Last years Butterflies

 Click image to enlarge!
Last year I smelled a sweet scent in the air. Following the scent I fond a pile of rutten apples. And lots of Red Admirals feasting on them. I felt like I was on a party too.

I did only saw two Admirals this summer, what a difference. 
I hope you like them despite the fact they are summer related not Christmas. 

Take care!

I found this one the other day in a second hand store. It has crystal orange/yellow sides and glows nicely with a candle in it.

Fallow deer bucks, mostly

Fallow deer. Yesterday it was sunny, the first sunny day in weeks. I took the car and headed for Klastorp in hope to see at least a few Fallow deer´s. For a change someone was listening. I found a herd of Fallow deer bucks on a field close to the mansion. I think every male in the area was gathered on that field. I never before seen so many together. Only males, no hinds!
I moved very slowly sitting on the ground, well dressed, they saw me but did not care. After a while I got up the slope and slowly went in the forest edge to see them from another angle. That worked too. I was able to get behind a large rock. A few noticed me but did not mind. 
Being small and slow is probably a good thing around deer´s. When they left I did too. Then I explored a few fields I had not visited before. 


To complete the post I also found a few hinds on another field. But they did not want to "show off" so they took off pretty quickly.

The dark color is taking over among these deer´s and the red ones with white markings are fewer. 


  Today is another grey day so I was very happy about yesterday.

As the title suggest there is not much to see outdoors nowadays. It is just grey and foggy. 
I am currently posting some birds from my trip to Queensland Sept 2014, on Instagram. 
My sister said she likes to see some colorful birds we don´t have in Sweden. So, to keep us busy during the second wave of C, I post some images from back then. 

Hope you like them too.

Early morning, cold and misty. Hard to catch the bird.

As far as I know there are three kinds of dippers in the world and I have seen them. 
There are also a lot of subspecies. But those I have not seen. 


The little fella in the video, is the one from the image above. As I have no tripod, and a phone is quite tricky when it is windy you might be a bit dizzy. But I think you survive. I did. 😂

Take care everyone from both Corona and Politics.
