I've come across a lot of different things on my run, but this female mallard was a real slob. I had to get out of the car on the forest road and politely ask her to move. 😄 She was fine, she finally took off when I asked her nicely enough. 🤭

The exact reasons for the decline are not fully known, but the most significant factors are suspected to be changes in habitats, such as the intensification of agriculture, the density of buildings, and excessive landscaping of yards, which removes nesting sites and protective shrubs.

In 2019 it was classified as a critically endangered species in Finland.However, there is a big flock of them in our yard. 🥰

Morning in the bog. Fozen moss. Sounds of black grouse and ural owl. My happy place! #neva #bog #nature #finnishnature #photography #naturephotography

There is an old Finnish saying: a month from a lark to summer, half a month from a chaffinch, a little from a wagtail, not a day from a swallow. According to that, it will be summer here in Finland in a couple of weeks! 🥰

It's hard to get a good picture through the branches, against the light. But here's a picture anyway, and hey, my first sighting of this bird, and in our yard! #harmaapäätikka #picuscanus #greyheadedwoodpecker #birds #finnishbirds #nature #finnishnature #photography #birdphotography

Met "some" forest reindeers. 😊 In fact, the herd was so large that not everyone could fit in the picture. #metsäpeura #rangifertarandusfennicus #finnishforestreindeer #nature #finnishnature

This new friend of mine is tame. 🥰 I took a close-up picture and he posed beautifully. I thanked him and bowed. 😊

The frost lightly pinching the cheeks smells fresh. The snow crunches under the shoes, otherwise there is unbroken silence. It's good to be here.
