This was a nice sight this morning. We haven´t seen the sun for weeks now so better enjoy it while we can :-)

We have to pass this island to reach the other one that we went to today.

Woke up this morning and to my surprise so did the sun. Must been weeks since it showed it self here. So it was a perfect weather for walking to any of the other islands in the bog. The only thing that disturbed me was a nasty cold, but weak wind. But when we reached the forest we couldn´t feel it any more.

It´s hard to understand how big the bog is,

until one really gets out there. I think that it´s here the black grousse can be heard at late winter early spring.

It was easy to walk on the bog, because the water had frosen so it was completely flat under my feet. It´s easy to loose the sence of direction out there, but today I could here someone use a chanesaw and I new where he was placed. I think it took about five minutes to walk over the bog to the island I chosed for todays walk.

Finally we´ve reach the beach on the "new" island. I´ve never been here before.

This island lies in the natural protected area, so trees that has fallen aren´t mowed.

I think that it´s quite big, but I only walkes on a small piece of it. This island lies in the natural protected area, so if a tree falls it must stay. But I was surprised that someone had cut some of the trees in smaller pieces. Wonder why? But at least they hadn´t taken anything with them when they were finished.

In the middle of the island lies a former pond. Now it´s more like a swamp I think.


And everywhere one can find different polyporuses. They are quite beautiful.

It´s a totally different world out there. Like walking in a place no one been before. But to be honest I don´t think that the trees is that old. The bog hasn´t been protected that long. In the iron age (about four thousand years ago) this was a shallow lake. They have found objects and humans that has been sacrificed to the gods some kilometers away.
Next time I´ll walk thru the wholr island, who knows what I can find out there.
Have a nice day now!

I can´t help loving these polyporuses.
