Alone stone

Alone stone

Left here since the ice age some ten thousand years ago. Watching how the nature around slowly changes. Generations come and go. Past generations believed these blocks of stone was thrown by giants or the the gods. The stone knows.

Fact or fable, where’s the fun. Ha de Gött!

Evolution

Evolution

We have evolved to harness
the forces of nature
Homo Sapiens - the sensible man
on top of the evolution hierarchy
the grown up among species
but we behave like spoiled children
sense of consequences underdeveloped
stripping Mother Earth of her gifts
like a pack of hungry Hyenas
will we ever grow up and face
consequences of our actions
learn to never take more than we need 

The future is not there because we can’t see it, or….. Ha de Gött!

Forest river

Forest river

Today it was snow and the sun graced us with its presence today so I took a drive into the deep forests and found this beautiful spot. I’m not sure but, the tracks in the snow could have been wolf! Spent some thirty minutes in the spot and I’m sure I felt that someone was watching me.

Howl, ha de Gött!

Common Eider

Common Eider

I’m not much of a bird photographer, too impatient, but this group of common eider (Somateria mollissima) was keen models. They swam back and forth as if they liked to be in the frame. The males are black and white with a colourful head while the female are dressed in all shades of brown. It’s a large bird with weight up to 3 kilos and up to 70 centimetres in length. This fast flyer, can fly up to 110km/h, live in large flocks and nest close to the sea. The nest is lined with eiderdown plucked from the female’s breast. In Swedish it’s called ‘Ejder’ and the pronunciation is almost same as in English. Also know as St. Cutbert’s duck or Cuddy’s duck.

Quack on, ha de Gött!
