This summer I found the waders in another place as they usually are. The water was to deep at the place they used to be. But I liked the change. This place is more open so it is easier to see them.

Öland trip tryout

Last saturday I went to Öland. I´ve been in Gamleby and Västervik ( 3 posts on NF Photo starting HERE) for a week and now I headed south. I did go to Öland for 2 reasons. I wanted to  try my tent.  I have not slept in a tent since I was a kid and now I wanted to see if this is something I shall do in order to get to where the birds are. With a tent you are free to go where ever and when ever you like.

It was a good trip and I will do it again. But hopefully then there will be more birds. The only problem I had was to find the local Supermarket to buy food. Luckily I brought some with me. :(

The trip back home took 5 h with only one stop for gas and wc visits.
