A beautiful day at Vegglifjell

The mountain of Veggli is beautiful in wintersun.

Elg

The winter with all the snow can be hard on the animals in the wood. But this elg-cow and her calf seemed to be in good shape and enjoyed the morning sun.

Veggli

This is another picture from Mormor. It is taken in Veggli. I like the color and sunlight at the trees. :o)

More winter art

The frozen sprigs twinkles in the sun. :o)

Early morning fog

Today was one of theese mornings when I am glad I live high up in the mountain . This beautiful sight met me when I drowe to work . Sunrise over the valley hidden in thick winter fog . I just had to stop and take this picture even though it made me ten minuts late for work .

Minidachs running in snow.

Small dogs can have great fun in big snow !

Ice-melting

In february every day with sun brings us a step closer til spring and every drop of ics-melting give us hope of days without ice and snow !

Winter art II

Yesterday I got some pictures from Mormor's daugther Jorun, and this is one of them. Notice how the branch is covered in huge snowflakes! This is really winter art! Thank you for sharing this picture with us! :o)

Cold day

Yesterday was beautiful! Cold, but beautiful! (-22 celsius).

Snow + sun = nice

The sun made Vrågå shine during sunset yesterday.

Eurasian Jay

The Eurasian Jay (Garrulus glandarius) finds the birdfeeder interesting as well. :o)

Great Spotted Woodpecker

A Great Spotted Woodpecker (Dendrocopos major) visited my grandparents birdfeeder today.

And as you can see, its still snowing. :o)

Normannsslepa

In the middelage, if you wanted to go from the south-east of Norway over to the west-coast of Norway you could follow the Nordmannsslepa. This is a kind of trail over the mountain Hardangervidda . Still you can follow the old trail and smell the air of historie ! Walk in the footprints of bishop Askjell who sometime between 1226 - 1254 crossed the mountain . And where thousand of Norwegian traders has walked after him . And you can start the walk in Veggli. But... I would advise you to go in summer....
