Pinkfeet migration
Despite the heavy snow all day, flocks of migrating pinkfooted geese (kortnebbgås) have been passing over all day. Spring is here, much earlier than it used to be! Not easy to see them though in this weather. So far some 1,000 birds have arrived in their staging area (where they prepare for the next stage of the journey to Svalbard) in Levanger just north of here!
The Hanging Edible Garden
Heavy wet snow isn’t that common here…after the storm yesterday the garden was hanging this morning and even had to duck to get out of the front door :)
Fieldfares in snow
Let it snow, let it snow!
Had expected rain today, but heavy wet snow instead…put out apples for the thrushes this morning and a small flock of fieldfares accepted the invitation!
