Winter is still coming

It is below freezing all the time at the moment and snow is forecast for tonight. A quick drive around Maridalen today revealed 3 adult Whooper Swans and a Goldeneye on the lake, a male Goshawk over and a few Bullfinches and Yellowhammers.
There was a frost covering the fields, the edges of the lake are starting to freeze and the there was mist over the lake - very atmospheric.


This isn't at Maridalen, but something I saw in London at St. James Park on Tuesday, can I tick it?

  1. I like your blog!
    Does tic mean what we in Sweden call "kryssa", when you put a new bird to your list?

  2. Hi Lena. Tick does indeed mean the same as the swedish kryssa. The Pelicans unfortunately cannot be added to my list though as they are not wild - still nice birds though!
