Yeah, I've been away for a while. It's been a lot around me the last few months but I promise I will update as much as I can and as often as I can. Now, I will update this blog with a few pictures :)
We'll start with a few pictures from when friends of my dads came down to us. We went for bird watching over the weekend and this is the result:

This is a really bad picture of a Red-necked Grebe (Podiceps grisegena). This one had it's nest not far from where the picture was taken. Both birds where extremely hard to photograph since they kept diving all the time. It's frustrating, but worth it once you get a good picture :)

This is a rare bird here in our part of Sweden. It's called Carrion Crow (Corvus corone corone), but here in Sweden it's called "svartkråka" (Black Crow). It's not so common over here. It's only known to live in Scania and the other southern parts of Sweden. The picture was taken at a distans, later the crow was a few feet from the road, not even worried about people almost walking over it!

I hope most people recognise this bird: the Canada Goose (Branta canadensis). The male in the picture (the adult one to the right) kept his eyes on us all the time as we walked by.
Apparently we where a little to close for his liking :)

Now, this is maybe the only picture you'll see on a church on this blog.
This church is called Saint Birgitta and was founded in the 13th century.

This image contains the church from the picture above, the stone cross and the lighthouse. The stone cross was on the sight before the church. It was founded in the 12th century. The lighthouse is way much younger, it was founden in the 1840s. The people in the picture is (from the right) my dad and his friends.

Now, this cutie has come back for years to our backyard since we moved here. Although resent suggestions from scientists says they move around a lot, but I think I recognise my "hedgie" after all these years :)

Well, that was all I had for this time. Hope you enjoyed it! :)
