I made this little video mostly because I wanted You all to hear what I hear almost every morning. I really must remember not to walk when filming, it looks like we´re having an earthquake when I´m walking around with the camera :-) :-) Unfortunally the cranes kept quiet when filming, but You can hear a woodpecker in the beginning.
It was surprisingly warm this morning, almost eight degrees celsius ( almost 46 degrees fahrenheit). Still the air felt cool and brisk. I could hear cranes and geese making a lot of noice and once in a while a woodpecker shreaked in the forest. I couldn´t see any deers today though.
Teodore has this idea that he will run ahead and then suddenly lay down on his back. He shouts a lot all the time too :-)
As You can see, he´s not the cleanest of cats :-)

The sun really helped to make the color on these raspberry leafs shine!
I´m having some troubles concentrating on this blog now. The kitchen door is already open and the magpies are flying in and out of my cottage to steal cat food :-) They don´t even care about me until I´m comming real close. I can´t but admire those birds :-) But I will have to do something about this and do it soon. I don´t want them to learn their whole family that there´s free food in my kitchen :-) I have a blog friend that writes in her blog "Keep The Coffee Coming" that also have an animal problem, but she is dealing with squirrels instead :-) Why don´t You all go and read her blog when You´re finished here! She writes a fantastic blog!

I really don´t mind the magpies stealing the cat food, of that I have plenty. But they do make a mess outside and inside my kitchen. They really don´t care about where they do their toilette buisness :-) and they can be kind of nasty towards my cats too. But they really don´t care about my dogs, they seemes to have understood that my dogs more or less letting them do as they pleases :-)
There´s a little pond hidden in this little copse.
My cup of tea on my kitchen stairs. The tea is "Earl Grey" a black tea with the taste of bergamotte, a citrus relative.
Well it´s time for my cup of tea on my kitchen stairs. It´s so nice sitting there in the sun early mornings. Just before the sun gets to hot (my kitchen stairs is towards south, so even if it´s not that warm outside it will get hot by my stairs). At the same time I´ll show the magpies that I´m on to them :-) They don´t care to be honest. They land on the ground just out of reach staring at me, accusing me for hinder them on their way too the food :-)
Have a great day now!

The sounds of Sweden, right in both ears this morning, now that's technology at its' best. I did hear the Cranes and could barely make out the Woodpecker. And I'm thinking Kat should ship you her squirrels; you should ship her the Magpies; then everyone would be happy. Love the photos this morning and I'm shopping today for some of that tea. Thanks.
what a wonderful video christer! there was music playing in the background that accompanied the video perfectly and i was just about to ask you what it was when i realized it was from my blog!!! i usually have the sound off on my computer so i don't even know what music is playing on my own blog!!!! i could hear the cranes very clearly. i have a woodpecker in my backyard right now. good thing there are no cars on your road because teodore looks like a speed bump! you truly live in a beautiful place!!!! joyce
Hi Z&M!
I had to listen one more time to the video, but there´s no cranes to be heard. Lots of geese sounds however. I´ll try to catch the cranes some morning too.
Yes! I can take her squirrels if she takes my magpies :-) Then I think we both would be rather happy :-)
I love Earl Grey and even if I quite often buys other kinds of tea, I always comes back to Earl Grey!
Have a great day now!

Hi Joyce!
I too almost always have the sound of on my computor, so I would peobably have made the same misstake :-) :-)
Sorry, but it´s geese You can hear. I will try to capture som cranes too one morning. It´s a totally different sound, sort of sad in all its loudness.
I´m very happy that we have very few cars here and those few driving here all knows that they, with big possibilty, will meet several cats and perhaps my dogs too :-) :-)
Have a great day now!
Christer.
LOVED the video. I also am a fan of Keep The Coffee Coming blog, she does a good job.
Earl Grey eh? I am a Irish tea girl.
Guess its the Irish blood that flows in me along with my Native American blood...and YES it does make an odd couple, but I like the way I turned out. :-)
As always Christer you again out done yourself with this post.
Have a super fantastic awesome day eh?
I will have to wait till I am on a work computer to look at your video Christer. We only have dial up at home. The photographs were so beautiful(as I find they always are). Theodore looks like a great cat, and your magpies.. We have magpies in Australia, and here in Tasmania. Unfortunately we do not get them down as far south as I live. I love their songs and their cheeky personalities. I do miss them. We get cockatoos that fly over head and sometimes stop in the trees for a rest.
We dont have squirrels, but in exchange for magpies, and squirrels I could send some bandicoots, and a possum or two. lol
Hi Diane!
Glad You liked it :-) Not the best quality but it´s sure fun to make them :-)
I´ve heard about Irish tea, but I know no sorts of it! I always tries new sorts, but always comes back to Earl Grey :-)
You have a fantastic day too!
Christer.
Hi Aussimade!
I had dial up before and it drove me mad sometimes :-)
So You have magpies too?! Who came up with that idea to bring them to Tasmania :-) :-) Well they are wonderful, intelligent and funny birds, but that You have a lot of as it is down there!
Cockatoos and all other great parrots and parakeets You have is fantastic!And it would be fun to have a possums or two :-) But a bandicoot would be fantastic to have here :-)
Have a great day now!
Christer.
Christer,
I so loved that video. The crunching of your footsteps made me feel as if I were there with you. The sounds were just wonderful.
I'll trade!!
Hi Kat!
Nice to see You here again!
Glad You liked the video! Yes lets trade :-) Your squirrels and my magpies :-)
have a great day now!
Christer.
