Spent most or the day birdwatching around the cabin today as there were lots to see. 1 Grey-headed Woodpecker (a rare bird in Lapland) was moving around from tree to tree associating with a Great-spotted Woodpecker. There was a Reed and Rustic Bunting feeding around the cabin plus; Fieldfare, Redwing, Waxwing, Goldcrest, Redpoll, Chaffinch, Brambling, Greenfinch, Raven 1 female Goldeneye on the lake and a noisy Jay. There were also a family party of 7 Siberian Jays feedling on a piece of pork I put in a tree. I spent about 3 hours photographing and filming them.
They are such a beautiful bird.I slit some logs this afternoon
spent a bit of time fishing but still caught nothing!!
Filtered some more water
and then I made a "Moose caller" for Anki's grandchildren.You can use a plastic cup or cut the top off of a bottle
then make a small hole in the base large enough to get a piece of nylon cord through (the inner line from parachute cord works well)
Now wet the string and pull gently between thumb and forefinger
