This weekend has been relatively ok weatherwise. And of course, the camera and I have been out, looking for object to immortalize. And this is what we´ve found:

11-12. August

HAve been out a lot lately, and have seen lots of interesting bird. Not all my captures are good, but some are just to prove that I have actually seen the birds..in the wild :-)

First weekend in August

Weekend again, and this time I have both been at the beach and around Mosvannet, the lake in Stavanger. And I have pictured rare birds and little birds. Its amazing what one can do with an Iphone!

29.july

July is coming to an end, and I spent the last Sunday out taking pictures. These ones are taken with a different lense. But am satisfied with the outcome though.

I just love the crested grebe/toppdykker

A primeshot of the same bird

As my neighbour went on holiday, he left these to as guards, and cleaning the moss of the roof at the same time

They were very loud performing their task...screaming for almost one hour!

A common snipe /enkeltbekkasin

Same common snipe/samme enkeltbekkasin

And again...

And a last one

A northern wheatear/steinskvett

A juvenile curlew/storspove taking a leap

Juvenile starlings/stær

This little fellow came very close to where I was sitting, and began to cuddle the sea weed there, oblivious to the company

Same fellow...but not enough for a coat, so..

A merganser/siland on a rock

And a bee on the thistle

Hope you´ve enjoyed the selection.
