Easter bonfire
One week late, the Easter bonfire. This tradition dates back the mid 1700 in Sweden and Finland. The are lit to welcome the spring. Mostly to scare of the Easter witch flying on their broom to the island Blåkulla to feast with the devil.
Easter is the day when Swedish children traditionally go trick or treat dressed up as Easter witch or Easter man. Sadly this tradition has lately faded out and been taken over by the imported Halloween tradition.
Fly safe, ha de Gött!

Winter bath
Winter still hangs on with cold frosty nights but during the day sun shines from a clear blue sky that thaws the land. That harsh light is not perfect for photography but in a secluded gorge I found some nice ice formations and melting ice for macro photo.
Is it just my imagination, or is there a little guy trying to lure me in for a winter bath?
Stay clear from the spring ice, ha de Gött!

Blackbird
A blackbird (Turdus merula) sitting safe in the blackthorn bushes, where else. Singing its loud melodic tune for a spring mate. This little bird has adapted to live close to humans and are therefore common in urban places. Found all over Europe but also in south east Australia.
Put your shorts on and sing along, back in black. Ha de Gött!

Cycle of horror
Now once again I find myself
in this terrible predicament
a weight of the world
on my sloping shoulders
pulse banging hard and fast
shivering breath and pearls of sweat
three times of every year
this cycle of horrific fear
one of the those repeating event
I need to find my wife a present
One down, two to go. Ha de Gött!
