These are essentially the same trees as in one of my previous posts: Green.

 

The first snow for this winter, it didn’t stay long, unfortunately. However, I am confident we will soon have snow permanently on the ground.

When out on my last boating trip before winter strikes, I managed to take this photograph. The temperature was not far from freezing, so I am very glad I haf my camera on a tripod…. All right, the outdoor temperature might have been +7C, but it’s a bit too cold for me to hold a camera without gloves.

This picture is deffinitely not within walking distance from home: it’s taken from a small island in the Umeå river delta. In summer it might be possible to swin to the island, but it’s nothing I recommend!

This is not my “usual” birch, but not far from it either.
