December 23rd..... .4th Advent... almost there....

Image
So yesterday the 22nd December, I was rather tired, grocery shopping with too many other people out there, watched a bit of TV, fell asleep and went onto reading the latest new book from Author Jussi Adler-Olsen, the 5th book in the series of The Q department. I had promised to have it read before the 24th so my mother could get the book back... all done, so I can start on the next lines of books waiting for me... So today I had to return the book and went into Copenhagen to give it to a family member. So while I was in there, the snow started and the wind picked up more and more.  Nex time they say it will be very windy and snowstorm, I'm going to get a pair of skiing glasses, it was rather hard to look up from the streets to be sure you walked in the right direction.... Today is the 4th and last Advent day of this year as well "Little Christmas day"... many will celebrate it with those they can't be with on Christmas day, or just be together the day before.... ...

December 16th.... White-tailed Eagle.... 3rd Advent day

Image
So another grey sort of foggy day and I've been inside all day once more. Todays photos are from a day trip to Sweden looking for a cousin to the white-tailed eagle, to which I found my lense was not long enough the few times we saw the eagle. It is on my wish list.... I highly recommend to do this one day trip, we saw a few other places while looking for the eagle and it was a great day out in the snow cold Sweden. Also it was one of the few places here in Scandinavia which is close to Denmark where you might be lucky to see the eagle... the guide was good at telling about the eagle that stayed the winter in Sweden. Happy 3rd Advent day. The ice on ocean breaking up... The ice showing teeth.... Frosty every where..... Tracks in the snow... This is the best photo I got of the eagle which flew just over our heads for a few seconds....
