Even if it drizzled when we went out of bed today, we felt it was time for a hike in the forest. And nothing is better than walking in the forest after a heavy rainfall when the air is fresh!
And yes, it was rather cold today so it was good and warm with hats ;)
It was great to get warm by the fire too while frying sausages.
We duged for more stones for our fire place and lots of this fine sand was under the heath. No doubt that there has been a sea here once...
It becoming berries too, but they are not ripe yet.
Bilberry, bunchberry, lingonberry, and cloudberry.

We found one ripe cloudberry ;) Eirin and Endre shared it, but they didn't like it... So we're just hoping for the rain and cold weather to stop so they get ripe.
Eirin found a moth that had been hit by the rain.
There is more flowers in the forest since last time we was here :)
Alpine bistort, tufted vetch, small cow-wheat, heath spotted orchid and marsh valerian - pink and white.

We saw that there was some foam on some of the plants and flowers.
What a wonderful nature walk - full of interesting finds.
ReplyDeleteI think the forest smells wonderful after a rain :)
