  • When I got out the door to go to work, I saw the same two roe deer again. They actually stuck around all evening yesterday so I think they slept close by and came to enjoy the fresh grass in the morning sun. With my knee no longer hurting, I cycled to work today. Can’t…

  • Always nice to see the roe deer. I wish both of them had their heads up at the same time, but they are very suspicious and watchful creatures so one was looking around and the other was eating.

  • It was one of those days, I had no ideas for my 365 so I just shot a few boring things in the garden and I didn’t even bother to transfer the pictures to the computer, I was going to do it as a last thing. But then later on when I went to the…

  • Another scorcher of a day, it was 28°C in the shade by 11am. The best place to be on such a day is to sit in an airconditioned car, and the next best thing is to walk on a sea shore to let the sea breeze bring relief to the heat. So that is what…

  • I only had one small window left, so I painted that in the morning and I was off on my way home already before lunch. I got to Särvsjö (about 20 km from Messlingen) when I heard an ominous sound… stopped the car and found that my right rear tire was flat. Horrified, I kept staring at…

And the price is having zero energy the next day. If you add the hot weather, wind, and sunlight filtered through…

  • So happy to see this little guy! It was actually quite exciting today, at first I saw two roe deer run across the field. A moment later, one of the roe deer came back to the field and as it turned out, it was a mommy roe deer picking up its kid. So that scene earlier,…

  • It’s been a long time since I’ve seen the roe deer in the field. I’m keeping a diary of the wildlife observations around the house and the last observation is from 31 March. I used to see them regularly until last autumn, and now I only have some sporadic observations. Either they changed their route…

  • I did another birding walk today, to Mon of course. It would be foolish to expect something as good as last week, but I figured there’s gotta be something. And just as I was walking down to Mon, I saw swans in the wetland. I was wearing camouflage, I was walking slowly and quietly, I…
