Otters in the water
3 otters swimming across the bay again this morning:
….which reminds me of this song by Harvey Andrews, a folk singer who often played support to rock bands in England in the 70s.
Dawn and dusk
At this time of year dawn and dusk coincides for several hours and there’s no sun-up and sun-down again until after11th January; this is the most beautiful time of year. This morning the beauty didn’t last long as the storm and sleet showers moved in from the west!
The video shows the sun illuminating part of Forbordsfjellet on the other side of the fjord.

Dawn over the Bay
Eider serpent
Looking even more like a sea monster / serpent this morning! Around 220 Eider duck (ærfugl) were in the bay this morning. I could hear theirfunny calls from the house!
Home again
Great to be home again after my non-stop tour of Eastern and Mid-West USA. 12 talks and 2 walk and talks complete without any deviations from plan! Thanks to all for making it possible and to the Midwest Wild Harvest Festival and Atlanta Botanical Garden who shared my travel expenses.
However, much to do to put my 3 gardens to bed for the winter!

January storm
It was a dramatic night here with high winds, snow, hail and there was even a thunderstorm at 4 am (not common in winter here!)….a Polar Low (polar lavtrykk).
Wind, Waves and Warmth
It was stormy on the fjord today, it’s now 8 days since the last frost, and no frost in the 10 day forecast…. :(
It reached +8C here on New Year’s Eve!
