They say the lark has arrived in Skåne – the southernmost landscape of Sweden. That is where I live, but I have not heard her yet…Every year they come early, trying to be the first ones to find a place to nest…and every year some of them will die – when winter will not let go. Nesting on the ground is dangerous in any case.
That is the way life works. You have to be brave and take risks in order to succeed. Migrating birds, people who have to leave their home countries in order to survive. But we all have to face this – maybe not risking our lives…but still.
And Winter has not loosened his grip, yet. We are patiently waiting…all except Totti. This is his season, his temperature, his joy. Lagotto Romagnolos do not come with a zip…

Always a wonderful pleasure to see your part of the world Ann-Christine – a magical experience.
Så vackra bilder. Första bilden känns lite hemma. Påminner om Bokskogen som jag ofta promenerade i med min Setter när jag bodde i Svedala.
Har du bott i Svedala! Jag har en väninna som är född där.
Jag är född i Malmö, uppväxt i Staffanstorp och har bott i Svedala. Numera är det Småland som gäller
lovely photo! 🙂
Thank you!
It’s great that winter is his season…..like my three…..so much fun to be had in deep snow and frozen water!
Yes, so much fun! Before we have closed the door behind us he is headlong on the frosty or snow covered grass – just like in the picture.
Loved your comment about the zip…Totti must hate hot weather
Oh, he just dozes off…and takes as many baths as possible!
😀
Looks like it’ll be a very early Spring … We take risks, big or small, we make choices — but sometimes it seems the choices were made for us.
It’s a beautiful photo! In my life, I’ve spent two days in Skåne. Hope to go back one day … I want to re-visit Ales Stenar.
Give me a call
I will 🙂
Lovely photos Ann-Christine. It is a high risk they take.. I hope they make it, both birds and people.
Difficult times, these. And the birds – and the humans – might be fooled by the climate or by other circumstances or people…Who are we to trust?
Agree…
I love the light in that first photo. I really feels like spring. And I love the second shot!

Janet, thank you, that day it really felt like spring was in the air! Today it is snowing again. But snowing beautifully.
