Min syster var på besök under julveckan, det var roligt att se henne men tråkigt när hon blev sjuk mitt på veckan. På något mirakulöst sätt klarade jag mig men då misstänker att jag också att hon inte led av en vanlig förkylning. Hon fick inte feber men hade mycket ont i bihålorna, så pass…

När jag bodde i Hälsingland, besökte jag Järvzoo flitigt. Den var min reservplan varje gång jag inte kunde tänka på nåt annat roligt att göra, i många år hade jag årskort dit. Men sedan jag flyttade till Härjedalen och den närmaste djurparken var 20 mil borta och hade inte ens öppet vintertiden (syftar förstås på…

It was raining yesterday so I went on a road trip in search of better weather, and found it – too good, in fact. I ended up in Frösö Zoo (which I visited 3 years ago), and needed a whole lot of tricks to handle the chain link fences in sunshine, until the sun disappeared behind…

(Warning for a lot of pictures!) It was a cold night in the tent. The camping site is on the mainland side of Ramsvikslandet so the wind isn’t so bad there, but the temperature sank to near freezing and I didn’t sleep well. I got up at 5am for my morning hike, it felt really…

A last visit to the zoo, I just had to see the bear cubs. They were released to the public enclosure today and it turned out to be a very popular event, the parking lot was full! Oh my gosh how cute the cubs are. Still a bit unsteady on their feet, and absolutely adorable!

The last time I visited Orsa Björnpark, I bought an annual ticket because I visit the place a few times a year anyway. It figures that it’s right after that when I decide to move so far away that there will be no more visits! So I thought I would squeeze out one last visit…

Plan A was to go to Orsa but it’s too sunny for that. Never too sunny at Järvzoo though so that’s where I found myself. Initially everything was really quiet, I just walked through the whole park without taking a single picture. The most exciting thing that happened was all the water that was dropping…

We have plenty of snow (as seen in the first picture) but it doesn’t help, the landscape is hopeless for any meaningful photography. I prefer my winter trees covered with snow, but the hard wind and above freezing temperatures have done their work and the snow cover in the forests in particular is in a really…

It snowed a lot yesterday and last night, but it’s also been quite windy so the trees look a bit boring. But otherwise, it looks a lot like winter and we drove to Orsa Björnpark so see the animals in the fresh snow. In theory, a great idea – we even had perfect light for zoo…

Shortest day of the year in the zoo, you can understand there’s not much light to go around! It should’ve been a sunny day but all it takes is a thin cloud in the horizon where the sun is, and you need to push your tolerance limits with high ISO to get any decent shutter…
