Finally, Ice Cream Season?


You might be confused when I say that, but it seems that the autumn came to an end today in Northern Germany. I say autumn because we had dark clouds, rain and cold weather for several weeks now and it looked like autumn but definitely not like spring.

Today it really felt strange that this is already a year … Continue reading Happy New Year!

I could only react, in hope that the camera was set right and one second later the bird flew away and I did not get a second chance. The composition after cropping is ok, but I do … Continue reading Chaffinch Snapshot
