Wishing everybody a

A few of The Great Cormorant (storskarv) are still here. A month ago, when I visited Öland, a lot of them were already heading south. So, these seem to be late, but they don´t seem to mind.

On the other hand those Waxwings (sidensvans) are early arrivals from the north. Last season I did not see them until midwinter. Maybe all the raining spoiled the food up north?
