(One photo from each month, starting top left. You can read more about these photos and each month of my 2024 below.)
Although I haven’t been able to go to work this year, nor photograph as much as normal, I have tried to make the best of it - and I have made many great memories from the year anyway.
I ended last year by writing that I hoped for even more opportunities for photographing birds of prey from hides - which I did many times during winter and spring.
The photography trip to northern Greece during early spring that I looked forward to, gave me the chance to go back again already for late spring and other and more great experiences in that wonderful area.
I also spent much time on the island where I grew up, both during Easter and summer. I enjoyed the company of my parents, relatives, friends and of course enjoyed the nature, eagles and other birds there and on islands nearby, for a longer time than I use to.
During summer we had a great little road trip in northern, western and eastern Norway, and I focused even more on insect and wildflower photography in addition to landscapes and birds. And the autumn trip to Kenya gave many nice reunions and new experiences as well.
I have also found and seen many new bird species in Norway to me this year - 22, compared to 13 last year, (which I had by the end of May this year).
You can read more about each month of my 2024 below if you’d like to:
1. (Top left) Tough Times
JANUARY: After just staying at home by ourselves in the bad weather on New Year's Eve, it was nice to start the new year with a walk on our beach in the sunshine on New Year's Day. I also got some nice seabird photos in the beautiful waves.
After some cold and windy days, and envying all the snow in southern and eastern Norway that we never got here, we had a period of beautiful and cold weather, and icy shorelines and landscapes. I had longed for January weather like that since the last time 3 years earlier.
The rare red kite we also stayed in our neighbourhood for some more days since December, before it went on to southern Norway. I could even get special photos of it in the trees outside our front door! It was nice to meet and getting to know many birders who came to see it. It also led to an invitation to my first grouse lek during spring.
When the lakes froze, birds gathered by many water holes or feeding grounds, and it was easy to get nice photos of species that normally are more shy, like the water rail on this month’s photo. I went to Jæren and Stavanger several times, both together with Richard and bird photography friends.
We also did that on my 40th birthday, which was a beautiful and cold day, and I got some great photos of squirrels and robins in the frost. We went on an interesting underwater photography and protection lecture that evening as well. It didn’t feel like celebrating my “big day” in other ways than with regular things I love like that. But we also had a dinner at my sister’s place together with her family and our parents the next day.
A little later, we had some mild and grey weather, but then we suddenly and finally got some snow and beautiful weather. We went by boat to the local lighthouse to get some nice and rare seascape photos with snow, and we also got some nice bird photos in the snow by our bird feeders. Where we live, the snow always rains away after some days, but then we got weather for the year’s first bicycle rides with bird photography in the neighbourhood instead.
I also did some singing as usual that month, and ended the month by photographing a tawny owl release together with a wildlife veterinarian (which ended up in the newspaper), and having a presentation of my bird photography history for BirdLife Jæren.
FEBRUARY: Was a really busy and fun month of bird photography! It was hard to find just one photo from this month 😉
We had some days of beautiful snow early in the month. Finally, I got to photograph squirrels in snow for the very first time, on a nice feeding ground on Jæren. There were also lots of short-eared owls (jordugler in Norwegian) around for a long time, hunting by the coast and sand dunes. They stayed close to the trails and it felt unique to see that many that close. I had only seen one from a distance before, many years ago. I photographed them several times, and it was very social as well, since I met many other bird photographers while doing so.
I was lucky to spend 5 days in 3 different hides during this month, together with some other photographers - photographing both golden eagles, a common buzzard, squirrels, ravens, crows and jays in the snow, and golden eagles, white-tailed eagles and ravens without snow. Fun!
In the middle of the month, I bought myself a nice used Sony a1- a great upgrade from my a9II (that I use as a second camera now).
I also did some singing together with both familiar and new acquaintances this month, and went to some birthday parties. It was nice to have these chances to be social, since I was still on sick leave from work since November and sitting at home much (which turned out to last the whole year).
In the end of the month, during the school’s winter break, I went to Greece for the first time – a country I had wanted to visit for a long time. A photography friend and I spent three days of spring sunshine and delicious dining in Thessaloniki. It was lovely to go from very early spring in Norway to warmer spring in Greece. The first migratory birds had already arrived in Norway like the lapwings, but it was nice to meet even more of them in Greece.
After those three days, we met up with three more photographers and our two Norwegian photography guides from the Moskusguiden company. We went to Lake Kerkini National Park one hour further north, close to the Bulgarian border, where we spent four days photographing birds and eating lots of delicious food. Most of the photography time was spent in boats - photographing pelicans in all kinds of light and conditions, both early and late. I also learnt to pan motion pictures, like this month’s photo. We also photographed flamingos, egrets, cormorants and other birds that we met.
MARCH: I was still in Greece the first days of the month, photographing pelicans and other birds. Back home, I went to Jæren again a couple of times to take some more photos of the short-eared owls that still was easy to get good photos of on Jæren, since they hunted during the day, close to the paths by the beaches.
I also spent a lovely day of spring in a different bird photography hide than the three hides I visited in February. I hoped for some first photos of goshawks, but sadly they didn’t show up for the first day that winter/spring. But I got some nice photos of squirrels, great spotted woodpeckers, jays, bullfinches and other birds instead as a little consolation.
Spring continued, but it was a bit cold so I didn’t go as much outdoors at home to look for migratory birds as I would like to. But indoors I had lots of bird photos from winter and Greece to go through.
I had fun attending several Easter concerts with two different choirs, both hanging out with old friends and meeting and getting to know many great people. It is a bit sad that I can’t stand and move as much as I would like to when I sing now due to my back, hips and feet, but fortunately there are high stools so that I can participate anyway. It means a lot to be able to participate, meet people and sing anyway.
March ended with the week of Easter break, and I went to the island I’m from to spend it together with my parents, visit my niece in Bergen who turned three years old, enjoy nature and visit friends and family. I also spent three beautiful spring days there at sea, together with a photography friend to photograph white-tailed eagles (at least 18 individuals), the year’s first oystercatchers, and also several common guillemots and red-throated divers that I didn’t expect. We had so many lovely nature experiences. It was also fun that my choir's conductor and his father-in-law (who have a cabin where I’m from), got to join us for some hours, to meet the white-tailed eagles up close for the first time. They were really excited.
4. (Top right) Beautiful World
MAY: Started with lovely 23 degrees and a little road trip to enjoy the weather and photograph some birds. Back home we saw the year’s first common terns in our neighbourhood, which is always delightful. The next day, I showed bird photos from the winter and spring in our bird club.
I both visited bird watchers early in the month, where I got some nice hawfinch photos in their garden (kjernebiter in Norwegian- I rarely see that species), and I had bird watchers visiting me as well. We photographed all the common terns courting with fish up close in our neighbourhood, several loons by the beach, and on a field close to our house, we even found both my and the municipality’s very first dotterels (boltiter). Several friends came to join trips to ring and photograph tawny owls and owlets as well throughout the month.
After my trip to Greece in February, I got a last-minute offer to join their next five days long photography trip back to the same area in the middle of May. I couldn’t resist, since there were many more and other birds to photograph there now during breeding - like bee-eaters, spoonbills, birds of prey, little bitterns, penduline tits, shrikes, storks, more cormorants and egrets than last time, and many more. And I looked forward to get some more of the delicious Greek food as well. I didn’t regret going at all, it was a great trip!
Back home, I celebrated our national day (and the day before) in the lovely nature in our neighbourhood, with my electrical bike and camera. The weather was really lovely, and I found many nice birds to photograph, an even some rare ones as well- like two Icterine warblers (gulsangere).
Then I traveled to visit some friends for the weekend, and take portrait photos of their confirmand. I also visited my parents and another friend on her 40th birthday for a couple of days on the way home. I found several nice birds to photograph in the lovely weather there as well, and met a curious grasshopper warbler (gresshoppesanger) up close for the first time. I also started photographing more butterflies in my parents’ garden than I have before, and it was a nice break from all the birds. I continued collecting many butterfly- damselfly-, dragonfly- and wildflower species to photograph for the next four months. It had been many years since I used to do that.
Back home, I spent the last week of the month on bird watching and photography in our neighbourhood, and even found another new species for me that’s rare to find here (marsh warbler/ myrsanger). It was my 13th new bird species in Norway for the year- as many as I had on a whole year the year before. (I ended up with 22 new species this year, and now have 235 in total in Norway. I didn’t use time on getting more even though I’ve heard of several discoveries the last months of the year, but I have to save some new ones for 2025 as wellッ)
I also found many ringed gulls of different species in our neighbourhood this month and the next one, which always are interesting to register to see how long time it has been since people last saw them, and what countries they have been to.
I also photographed some more beautiful confirmands in their national costumes and suits out in the nature the last part of the month.
JUNE: Started with photographing a relay race in Stavanger together with my photography club. A fun new experience. But when as had summer weather home in Egersund that day, it was really cold and gray in Stavanger. So when I got back home to the sunshine, I went out to the sea to photograph the great crested grebe (toppdykker in Norwegian) that we had in our neighbourhood for several months, which is not usual. It was the first time it was registered for our municipality in June, so it’s fun to get some nice photos when it’s something special.
The next day, I was invited to photograph a beautiful golden eagle (kongeørn) that was being treated by a wildlife veterinarian. Although it is sad that they are sick, it is awesome to get to see them that close.
After some lovely days in the sunshine both on the terrace and out among the birds, we had the first days of heavy rain in months (which is normal to have often here) and colder weather. But I had many portrait assignments and birds to edit indoors, so that was okay by me.
In the middle of the month, I was invited on a boat trip to see the tern colony by our island for the first time. I didn’t realize that we had that many common terns here- which is great, since they are in decline (too). I got some nice photos of them flying by right over the waves, with fish for their chicks.
Some days later I got many terns and different gulls even closer, when we had lots of them hunting shoals of fish by the beaches in our neighbourhood for days. It was quite a show, and I got so many cool photos of them. They didn’t mind me sitting by the sea, and came to dive for the fish very close. They also argued with each other and some eider ducks with chicks, which gave many cool situations and motives.
I also found many more ringed gulls in our neighbourhood, like the month before. Most of them was old, and hadn’t been seen that much- which is interesting.
I also had time and energy for some bird photography trips to Jæren and Stavanger, and met even more new species- like the beautiful spotted nutcracker (nøttekråke).
I photographed several beautiful confirmands in their national costumes in the last part of this month as well, and I attended a summer party together with the colleagues that I hadn’t seen that much, and had a fun summer concert with my choir.
Then we went on a little road trip and yet another wonderful stay at Tranøy lighthouse in Northern Norway, before going back to western Norway and our favourite spots in Stryn in the sunshine, like on the month’s photo.
I went to visit my parents for 3.5 weeks after the trip. It was lovely to stay there for that long, to get to visit many more of all the people and places I would like to when I am home, and to spend even more time with my cameras in the nature I grew up in. But we had a lot of bad weather, so I really enjoyed the nice days or hours in between.
7. Clover Feast
JULY: I was still on Bømlo island where I am from the first three weeks. In between all the bad weather, I got some bird photos that I didn’t have from before, and I used the days and moments of sunshine the most on finding more butterfly- and wildflower species to photograph, like I started doing in May.
Both of my siblings with families including my nieces and nephew, came to visit me and my parents as well. We had a great weekend together both in the garden, at sea, in the boathouse eating crabs, and celebrating the kids’ birthdays together.
On two of the nicest days, I went to the sea together with my photography friend to photograph the white-tailed eagles again, and other birds that we met- like red-breasted mergansers (silender) with lots of chicks at sea.
I went on some road trips as well together with my parents on some nice days, to neighbouring islands (populated ones)- including one that I actually hadn’t visited before. We went on nice walks, ate delicious food and visited my friends on one of them.
Richard also came for some days, and we spent some time in nature and visited my brother and his family in Bergen, before he brought me and my stuff home from the long, relaxing and nice vacation with my parents.
Back home the last week of the month, we enjoyed the nice weather on some road trips for some nice walks in the nature, butterfly photography together, and even some bird watching and new species on Jæren again. I also found lots of butterflies and other insects to photograph in our neighbourhood. It’s my best way of enjoying nice weather ッ
We also spent some days together with my parents who visited us, and we visited my sister and family in their cabin in southern Norway together.
On the month’s last day Richard and I went on a longer road trip over the mountains to eastern Norway. The weather was lovely and we found many nice and new butterflies to photograph, which both of us was into.
8. Evening Walk
AUGUST: Started with finding the rare apollo butterfly while in Telemark, on a hillside where they are known to be found. But it still was hard to find one and we used a long time to do so. It was even larger, more transparent and special than I thought. (Richard found one the evening before, but it was gone before I came to the spot. Luckily I found one this next day, before we had to drive to our next accommodation.) We visited some more nice places for landscape photography in eastern Norway before going home the next day.
Back home, I heard and met the first migratory wading birds already, stopping by after breeding further north. Some common greenshanks (gluttsniper in Norwegian) stayed on a small beach here for some days. As I was lying still on the beach, they came closer than I’ve ever had them- both to rest and search for food, and I got so many nice photos and videos. I just love when the birds don’t notice me like that, and I have to lie there until everything aches before they walk away by themselves ッ
Some days later, I did the same on our longest beach - where many sanderlings (sandløpere) like the one on this month’s photo and a dunlin (myrsnipe) stayed for some days. I had a lovely evening together with them at the beach, in the stunning light before the sun set.
I also continued photographing butterflies, damselflies and dragonflies on nice days on our island, and I went to Jæren one amazing day where I got three new bird species on my list.
When school started, I tried to stay some hours at work for some days, for the first time in a long time. But sadly my body didn’t handle that in a good way at all, and it was hard to get well enough to get back. So I was still on sick leave that lasted for the rest of the year.
But I finally got medicines that helped me on shorter assignments- like photographing a 2 year old and his family at our beach, a newborn, and some kittens for The Norwegian Society for Protection of Animals (on different days, of course). But I couldn’t do weddings and long assignments at all this year.
I had a fun assignment for my sister-in-law as well. We went by our boat (in heavy rain), to the lighthouse close to where we live, to surprise my sister-in-law´s friends who were on an overnight stay there on her birthday. She wanted me to sing some songs for them on their party, which they seemed to enjoy.
9. (Bottom left) Wonderful Weekends
SEPTEMBER: The weekend when we entered September was a wonderful one. I could sunbathe on the terrace, which is not normal that late in Norway. Actually, I could sunbathe throughout the month (!) Especially all the weekends were really lovely with high summer temperatures after some rain on some of the week days.
I photographed some last butterflies and dragonflies of the year in the sunshine. The beautiful peacock butterflies (dagpåfugløyer) on this month’s photo was two of many, on some butterfly bushes in a friend’s garden. I had photographed them many times on many places since early May, and right outside our house as well. That’s kind of unique, since I had only seen them once before- 9 years ago, without my camera. But maybe I noticed them even more this year, since I was more focused on searching for butterflies to photograph (?) At least I think I’ve got enough photos of them for a lifetime now 😉
At that time, we also went to Stavanger to photograph the release of a recovered tawny owl, for some wildlife veterinarians that even had given her a bunch of new feathers. It’s always lovely to first see them that close, and then to see them go and hope for a good life for them.
The second weekend was even warmer, with an amazing 30 degrees in most of the country (not normal). I went on a fun weekend in Sauda together with my choir, which feels like both like friends and family. It’s always good being together with them.
I got some new bird species this month as well together with a bird photography friend, in Kristiansand and on Jæren. The most special was Norway’s third registered visit of a cattle egret in history. I had seen them in Africa and Greece before, but it was fun that my friend wanted to drive for 3 hours both ways to get it on our Norway list as well ッ And we got really nice photos of it as well, while lying on a pier when it was searching for food right on the other side of a bay for a long time.
And on Jæren we met our first great grey shrike- the rare subspecies called steppe grey shrike (steppevarsler), native to central Asia. It came from the other side of a field and right in front of us to hunt for- and eat beetles, for a long time. What a luck!
I could sunbathe for a whole week in the end of the month, to get some base colour before going to Kenya the next month, which is fantastic for Norwegian autumn.
I also spent much time gathering at least 110 kilos (5 suitcases) of clothes and bags to give away to the people I met in Kenya. I had very much for women and youth myself, and got much for children, men and larger women from family and friends.
I had a couple of confirmand photo shoots as well this month, a soloist assignment in the church and a concert with my choir.
10. Fine Family
OCTOBER: Started lovely, like September, and Richard and a friend of mine went to another friend to get a new migratory bird species on our lists that was in her garden ッ But as others could be outside enjoying the other sunshiny days, I had to stay indoors packing for Kenya and finishing my presentation of bird photos from Greece, that I held in our bird club right before leaving.
Kenya (Masai Mara) in the autumn break was fantastic! I brought 5 other photographers with me, and all the clothes I had gathered to give away, back to the same place where I was only 16 months earlier. But it was so lovely getting to know all the Masaais who work there even better, and we got many other animal experiences than last year. There were even more of the most interesting animals closer to the camp this year, like several lion tribes, elephant families and a cheetah, in addition to even better hippo photos than before, and many other species both close to the camp and on our day in the Masai Mara National Reserve further south.
It was also lovely to see a newborn giraffe there, my first (young) leopard in a tree with a newly killed impala (that I had hoped to see for so long, and had to go to Africa 4 times to see), and so many other unforgettable moments. Although there were less water and less birds than last time, I had many new bird experiences as well- like my first two southern ground hornbills (Rødmaskehornravn) right by our camp, some other new bird species to me, and many nice photos of white-fronted bee-eaters feeding their chicks. I also got some great photos of new birds of prey to me. Luckily I had my new medicine to help me to endure, getting a great trip.
Back home the typical grey, wet, windy and cold autumn weather had arrived, and my body needed som time to function again after giving it all on the trip.But I had many portraits from before I left to sit and edit at home, and some photos from Africa in between.
My choir had some busy weekends, with both a visit from and concert together with the American gospel artist Norman Hutchins who had been here a couple of times before, and then a weekend of concerts in the concert hall together with known artists and the Stavanger Symphony Orchestra, to celebrate the local and popular Viking soccer team. Very social and very fun!
I also started rehearsing for all the Christmas concerts, photographed an engaged couple, celebrated our grand-niece’s birthday, and Richard’s 50th birthday som days later- in the same quiet but cosy way that I did on my 40th birthday in the start of the year.
I also finally was diagnosed with chronic inflammation in my worst hip, so that was able to get some more treatment for it. It’s only too bad that they haven’t seen it on all the photos earlier, since they said that I must have had it for a long time, and that it probably won’t go away completely.
NOVEMBER: The typical autumn weather was still ongoing, but we got one colder and nicer week later on, where I took some trips to our longest beach to photograph all the crested tits (toppmeiser) and other small birds in the low pine trees behind the beach, where it is easy to get good photos of them. I also got some nice deer photos. But no flocks of crossbills or great spotted woodpeckers showed up, like they did for a long time during autumn and winter the year before.
I also got a long-tailed duck and some velvet scoters (haveller og sjøorrer), fishing much closer than before while sitting on the beach in some nice evening light.
I went to many Christmas concert rehearsals, and due to my busy rehearsal and concert schedule of 5 concerts in December, I finished the last Christmas gifts in November already.
I took some pregnancy- and sibling photos of a lovely family that I have photographed many times before. It’s so nice to meet customers like that now and then, and see the kids growing up.
The second-to-last weekend, I went to visit my parents together with my sister, niece and nephew. I love getting quality time together with them like that. While up there, we had this winter’s only day of snow in western Norway, and as you can see on this month’s photo, we had a great time outdoors - taking their Christmas card photos, sledding, grilling sausages, and I got some photos of birds in the snow by the feeders I’ve bought for my parents as well. The next day, it all rained away- like it use to here by the coast..
And the last weekend, I had a very fun and cosy overnight stay at my sister-in-law’s place. We can share everything, and I’m so lucky to have her.
DECEMBER: Was a very grey and rainy one throughout the whole month, except for a part of the first very busy week with many dress rehearsal (generalprøver), concerts and a wedding party. I sadly had to drop the Christmas party at work that busy week.
The family I photographed in November, had their baby boy in December, so I went back to photograph them all. Except for those cute photos, the only other photos I took in December was of my new Christmas tree ornaments like on this month’s photo.
I found the ornaments while on a very cosy hotel weekend in Stavanger together with my best friend who lives on the island I’m from. I only see her a couple of times a year, so it was really nice to hang out together. We bought a few last Christmas gifts, watched movies and listened to Christmas music at our room, and had a lot of delicious food and drinks.
Except from this, I mostly stayed indoors (in the rain) in December- enjoying the Christmas atmosphere in the livingroom, listening to Christmas music and watching Christmas movies.
On the day before Christmas Eve, which we call “little Christmas Eve” (lille julaften), I went to Sandnes to exchang Christmas gifts and be together with my niece and nephew while their parents were busy. We watched Christmas movies and had a cosy time together, which was really nice since we weren’t celebrating Christmas together this year.
We celebrated Christmas Eve together with Richard’s mother and sister, and went to his mother together with more of their family on a Christmas dinner on Boxing Day.
Now, on the year’s second-to-last day, I am in a hide where I finally got to photograph the goshawk (hønsehauk), that I have hoped for all year and never got to photograph on all the other days in hides during the start of the year. We have also had many beautiful jays posing for us, but the golden eagle (kongeørn) that we originally came for wouldnt’t come today. But we got some moody snow while sitting there.
Tomorrow I will end the year the best way- having a nice time together with Richard, my parents, my sister, her husband, and my niece and nephew- at their place.
--- --- --- --- --- ---
Like I wrote last year - I am grateful for all the nice nature experiences, trips and travels, and all the time spent together with friends and family this year.
I really hope that I will be able to be even more active and work more in 2025, and that I can start to photograph long assignments and weddings again. I have really missed that this year.
Since I don’t know what my health and economy will bring, it’s the first time that I haven’t planned any trips and travels for the coming year. But I am sure that some things fun and exiting will happen more spontaneously through the year, as it always does.
