Here is my traditional article to celebrate the Land of a Thousand Lakes, a frozen land with a big heart, the place where I’m happy ❤
It’s not perfect, but there’s no other country where I would rather be 🙂
Here are a few pictures from this year that I haven’t published on the blog yet. The first ones are from Spring and Summer around Helsinki, while the latter are from Lapland in September. More articles are coming soon, but in the meantime, why not have a go at my latest piece, Ruska 2020: Pallas-Ylläs, if you haven’t yet? Welcome!
Wood sandpiper (Tringa glareola) Wood warbler (Phylloscopus sibilatrix) Eurasian wigeon (Mareca penelope) Black-throated diver (Gavia arctica) Bohemian waxwing (Bombycilla garrulus)
Happy 103rd birthday Finland! Hyvää itsenäisyyspäivää!
Beautiful photos, per usual, Samuel… autumn in Lapland is gorgeous!
