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.

An odd pair

These two birds were the only ones in sight and seemed to have paired up. To me it seemed like the young Whooper swan was the one that mostly wanted company. It followed the goose around.

Swan lake

I was driving by this little "lake". It´s really to shallow to be a lake and to big to be a pond. Well, anyway, I noted the swans standing on a thin layer of ice. So I stoped and parked the car. The sun was out so I took some shots right away. The white swans were shining against the ice. I did see two mute swans and the rest is whooper swans. As I walked down the slope to get closer to them the sun hid again. Making the swans look grey. On the second shot they are on the way to enter the water in a narrow opening.
