Spring Under the Old Oak.

A huge old oak is like a sacred place in our yard. We don´t touch the ground at all and all plants are welcome to blossom there. These photos are taken today 26.4.2019.

Tiny lilies,(Scilla siberica), idänsinililja in Finnish.

Wood anemones. Valkovuokkoja.

Common hepaticas. Sinivuokkoja.

I could´t find an English name for these tiny, yellow stars. (Gagea) Käenrieskoja.

A daffodil. Narsissi.

An Old Birch in Spring.

This is on of my favourite photos.

Good Friday.

Good Friaday is Pitkäperjantai in Finnish, it means Long Friday. After that terrbile late snow storm the nature is now waking up.

SNOW, OH NO!!!!

Do you have any idea how does it feel to see snowing now? I can´t tell it, because those words are not allowed here. Think positive, the sun will melt snow, before June for sure.

Different Style Old Buildings.

Maybe an old school.

Warehouse, summer rooms for maids and farm workers, and maybe some hens.

Deserted.

A cellar for potatoes.

Migratory birds are arriving!

Every day big groups of birds are arriving, in some fields even thousands of swans and geese eating and resting before flying to their nest places.

Common goldeneye, Bucephala clangcula, telkkä.

Mute swan couple, Cygnus olor. Kyhmyjoutsen.

Whooper swans, Cygnus cygnus, laulujoutsen. I counted up 120 and there  were more.

Eating.

And eating.

And eating.
