I was hunting for willow grouse  in Inari, Lapland,  lots of walking, no catch. Luckily shooting with a camera goes better. Here is an autumn picture from the shore in front of our hunting cottage.

Whooping Swans…less than 100

I want to thank all who have liked my posts. For the fist time two of my posts (rainbow  and from the top of a fjeld) collected 50 likes and the number of followers exceeded 200.

Almost 100 hundred of these beautiful birds were gathered to  a lake in Central-Eastern Finland.  They were waiting for a right slot to start their group migration towards south. Whooping swan is the national bird of our country.
