Anemone Nemorosa,,

The most common flower in the "peak" of the spring. The nature is covered of them and it´s so beautiful. Like a white carpet in the forests, in the parks and in gardens ....

Some have a different colour like this ones below. Some of the white Anemones are even blue !

Hepatica,,

We have a special place, a place to see Hepatica. Every spring they come up here, and this spring it must be a record. Thousands of them at the same place.

With this flowerpictures I wish you all a Happy Easter !! .....and, bring the camera out in the Nature so we can enjoy your nice photos on your blogs......

The smallest, and the largest,,

The smallest bird in Sweden, even in Europe is the Goldcrest. It measures about 9 cm and weighs only 4-6 grams. A few days ago I tried to catch this small bird, which is constantly moving, to the camera memory. I was lucky. Two of them came down to my level. They usually stays high up in the trees but these two was "cooperative" ! They tossed around in front of the cameralens. Thank you very much small birds....

As a contrast to these tiny little birds we have our largest bird, the Sea Eagle! Measuring allmost 2,50 meters between the wing tips it is truly a majestic bird ! Two photos with Sea Eagles in the snowy nature....

......and two photos from the summer. Sea Eagles fishing is an amazing sight !!

Hurry, hurry,,

By the smallbird feeding everybody seems to be in a "hurry". To eat and gain power to get a new family and to raise new familymembers.... The squirrels are coming on and take all the food for the small birds. Saw 5 squirrels at one time, chasing each other.

They seemes to have managed quite well during the winter. When the low sun hits the fur you can see that it is in good condition. The low sunbeams makes the fur "burning"...

The Nuthatch seems to have gained a Santa Claus beard over the winter....:))..and the Woodpecker is eating the "fatballs" which is meant for the small birds....But it is quite nice to look at!

Kungsfiskare (Alcedo atthis),,

This colourful little bird has been staying over the winter not so far from the place where I live. I am greatful to my blogfriend Ingemar P, http://kungsfiskaren.blogspot.com/ , who showed me where to find the Kingfisher. Doing the feathers - must keep them in trim after the dives.....

It´s a skilful fisher, during two hours he (she) managed to catch 6-7 fishes and all of them very quickly diasappeard in the gap .....

Nice and colourful, a great (small) bird !!

Magic light,,

In the troll forest.....playing games with the light.... .......I thought I saw a glimpse of the small people....

Berguv - Eagle Owl,,

Absolutely incredible ! Last summer I happened to "run into" an Eagle Owl (See "Knallsensation" in the list to the right).
Yesterday the same thing happened again.... Took a walk in the beech forest, just because it was a very fine day. Brought the camera to take some landscape photos.....Suddenly my wife looked up and said: "Funny branch up there, what is that?".....I stoped and nearly fell on my back when I realise what I saw...!! No branch for sure!!

Wow, not again I thought, This is impossible. But it was true!

On the picture below this big bird is showing the claws! Don´t mess with me......!

I say thanks to Mother Nature for bringing such a good show in my way !
