    Not unknown, but a bit earlier than we would normally expect to see snow. It sure was a cold snap, especially for November.

  9. Fieldfare

    Fieldfare

    In February 2919, looking out of my apartment window, I noticed some Fieldfares picking the rowan berries from a rowan tree at my window, and it even had started snowing. I love this scene. So, I quickly fetched my camera and opened the window completely to create this short video clip of...

    Grey Partridges

    A group of Grey Partridges on a cabbage field (or rapseed field?) covered with snow. It seems like they were waiting for their food be uncovered from snow. Occasionally they were nibbling on the vegetables at the small uncovered spots. After I stopped the recording because they laid down and did...

    Whooper Swan

    The Söderåsen National Park is really a nice place for birding. At this time in winter I actually started my walk in this national park to film some White-fronted Dippers. When I started at the Skärdammen I noticed this group of Whooper Swans.

    I can never resist a Robin, however tricky the conditions. Didn't cope with this one too well, but still like the image. He's sitting in front of the crash barrier.

    Snow fun 2 (SF)

    The shot immediately before this, the Blackbird had buried his head completely in the snow and this was the result when he lifted. Of course I didn't notice at the time of shooting, it was only when I was looking through the folder later. Hope it amuses you as much as it did me when I first...

    ... and all fluffed up against the cold. For it was very cold in mid-February. The snow which had fallen a few days before was now solid and sticking hard to the shed roof behind this tree. TTTW

    Big Boss?

    Is he going to be the one to father most of the youngsters this year? I'd not seen a sparrow in a photographable place for quite a while. Now that's not an over-exposed background, it's snow on a roof behind him. TTTW

    A newbie

    I was thrilled to see this wee guy. I've struggled to find Yellowhammers the last two years (they'd disappeared from the usual spots); though I'd heard some about a year before about 10 miles away! But here was one in my garden during that very hard spell in February. A new Garden Tick and Year...
