I like to take pictures of just about anything natural.

The king of the castle, or just high ambitiions for the future? Who knows, but the calf certainly chose a good lookout.

After an even wrestling bout, the only loser was the grassy field.

It takes a long time for a grass snake to cross a track in the cool autumn air. This one made it safely though.

Portrait of a young adult Finnish forest reindeer bull. He came Clive, one could say almost too close. He is after all, wild and free. I’m sure he knew I was there, but he had bigger concerns, such as staying away from the big bull. Could I have backed away? No, the only option was to saty still. I was just happy that he didn’t come closer.
This was taken with a zoom at 500 mm and is not cropped tighter, just straightened. I’ll let you work out how close he was.

Keeping up a crest. When you havve such a beautiful crest as a crested tit, it is worth keeping in good condition.

Last week the skies and berry trees were full of hungry waxwings. On several days I saw flocks of over a hundred birds. An incredible sight and experience following them gorge on berries to fuel up for their flight south. It was intense. On the one hand, they wanted to eat as many as possible, on the other they wanted to avoid danger. Every time a vehicle went past, they flew up into the tall birches, only to return a few minutes later..

But their crazy behaviour had a downside. With sadness I read how hundreds of waxwings flew into windows of office buildings at speed and fell to their deaths. There were images of shopping bags full of beautiful waxwings that will not return next spring. What is so annoying is that it is easy and cheap to stop, but for some reason the owners of buildings with lots of glass do nothing.
