Februar Snow!

Ja, det snør enda her hvor jeg bor. Men tydelige tegn på at en ny vår er i anmarsj!

Rede bygging og nye arter kom inn med orkanene Otto i går

Jeg har vært og spanet litt på disse sky fuglene!

Fuglebilder er ikke lette å ta.

De flyr vekk med engang de merker en bevegelse

Krikkand Anas crecca

The Eurasian teal

Is a beautiful bird specially the male





Her ser vi den tydelige forskjellen på hannen er mye større enn hunnen
Hannen forlater hunnen etter en liten stund.
Hun fortsetter med ruging i 22-28 dager
Så tar hun kyllingene med ned til vannet


Kvinand Bucephala clangula

The common goldeneye
Jeg obsereverte 2stk 
Hunn og hann 
Men bare hannen ble bruktbart bilde

Toppand er det store flokker med ved vannet
De har nok overvintret
Aythya fuligula
The tufted duck 

Knoppsvane (Cygnus olor)
Mute swan
The pair of mute swans have become stationary by the water where I live. 
This is their second litter of chicks. 
From being nine chicks, they are now only three. 
Soon these youngsters will be chased away by the parents.
 New litter will arrive soon



The whooper swans have been allowed to be here by the other mute swans. 


They are clearly not afraid of their territory yet. 
The whooper swans are beautiful and they sing beautifully

Snowy weather
The weather is a mixture of snow and sun. Easter weather! 
The days are longer and brighter. It's a joy! 
Pussycat and I have quiet days. 
We sleep, read, go for walks and do everything that makes life beautiful

  6. Your birdpictures are so clear! If I try something like that, all the birds will run of fly away ;) So the pictures would be tiny or all grey ;) Same with cats: allways the best parts would be the worst pictures.
    Here it´s so much snow. Last 24hours it`s been snowing. Still.... Summer is coming nearer every day :)

  8. Det er fint å ha snø der.
    I fugleverdenen begynner vårfølelsen allerede å prege litt.
    Jeg hørte også talitinten synge ti-tity for første gang i går.
    Du undervurderer, fuglebildene dine er gode.

  9. Me ha encantado verlos Anita. Las fotos preciosas. Me encantan los cisnes. Por aquí este año solo nevó un poco en la sierra, si hemos tenido mucho frío.
    Buena semana.
