What is happening now?
This Spring I found two active golden eagle nests in the area, and I recently joined a professional bird ringer in ringing the chicks. The aerial female has found a new male and they are successfully rearing a chick. I have followed the female for seven years and she was comfortable flying close to me as I checked the area around the nest.

The result of the mating pictures I took some months ago: the young male left the nest a couple of hours ago and this is the young females last minutes in the childhood home. I have spent a lot of time the last month on a steep mountain side photographing this two growing siblings, in cooperation with experts on wild Golden eagles.

This night I could shoot both the Milky way and Northern light from the roof of my eagle hide.
One of the summer's photo project has been to document how a young golden eagle evolved over a few weeks before leaving the nest. The photographing was conducted in close consultation with experts at the Golden Eagle in Västerbotten and was not initiated until the young bird had grown up considerably in order not to endanger the nesting result. The youngster is mostly alone in the nest and the parents show up about once a day to leave food.
By now the nesting is completed. It has been interesting to follow the Golden eagle youngster growing up; it has now left the nest and already become sure of wings in its new element: airspace.
Eventually the whole prey is left to the youngster because it should learn to cut by itself. A recurring prey during the month of July has been viper. The parents has flown in with snakes without head but still freshly caught ,death spasms have continued for a long while in the nest. Viper seems to be food that is easy for the young bird to handle and quickly swallow. Picture: The female coming in with Viper.

Now I have paddled ca 70km on two different water ways. In the smaller river -which had a lonely and beautiful running- there was “ relics” (old logs) from the log-driving epoch so I had to drag the canoe here and there. I have come close to birds and animals like for example several beavers, moose, whopper swans, goldeneyes and wild ducks
Curious moose from the canoe
Whooper swan and full moon in the middle of the Nordic early summer night.
The new floating hide works very well. A large number of whooper swans are around right now and this morning I even got mating pictures. At nighttime with a clear sky the stars are reflecting beautifully in the water.

Today, 27/9 2013 started the eagle season besides Golden eagle there were many small birds as jays and different tits.
It looks great around the ospreys this summer and I’ll be photographing from late july through early august. A falcon pair is also nesting in the vicinity so it’ll be a possibility to get pictures of them both.
Before photographing the osprey and falcon it is very important to prepare the right way so you
don’t disturb their nesting. It’ll be just before the youngsters learn how to fly.
I will follow the photographer to the hide and then leave, after that the birds will return straight away. Interested?
This picture is from last summer.
The beaver warning and splashing the water.
White Mountains this morning.
