It was extra exciting sitting in the pine forest hide in Finland three months ago, where we couldn´t see the animals until they were almost right in front of us.
We had three bears (and one wolverine) at only a few meters range there. Super exciting!

Our road trip north had us passing through Oregon’s alpine desert, and I just couldn’t get over how green and lush everything is. I could have sat along this meadow and watched the creek babble through it for hours.
I hope that you're not tired already of all the beautiful bears I met in Finland ツ
This is from my closest encounter with them, at only a couple of meters. I also sat in the smallest of all the hides on the trip that evening, which made it extra exciting ツ

400H
Ironing out the kinks in a new camera, test roll. Nothing too seriously kinked.
Very wide, wider than the Xpan by 4mm, about 21mm equivalent on 35mm. So about 3 Xpan frames stacked vertically. No distortion. Nice.
Igloo Village, Ivalo, Finland.
Igloo Village is a very beautiful place, and you should stay in the Igloo Glass Hotel, the design of the room is perfect for you to see Aurora Borealis.

Several hundred years ago some of the photographer's distant ancestors lived at each end of this huge lake district, respectively on the farm of Løtveit in Hosanger and on the farms of Vassdal and Løtveit in Bruvik.
From my only meeting with the wolverine in Finland, in perfect evening light.
I've posted this before in a wider version, but I liked them both- so here's the second version ツ

A decade ago, the landscape here was covered with pine trees...
Αfter the devastating fires of recent years, the result is disappointing...
As the sun sets, the afternoon intercity train 56, has just left behind the abandoned Polydendri Railway Halt and continues its journey to Thessaloniki.

Red Squirrel - Scirius Vulgaris
Highlands, Scotland.
The red squirrel is found in both coniferous forest and temperate broadleaf woodlands. The squirrel makes a drey (nest) out of twigs in a branch-fork, forming a domed structure about 25 to 30 cm in diameter. This is lined with moss, leaves, grass and bark. Tree hollows and woodpecker holes are also used. The red squirrel is a solitary animal and is shy and reluctant to share food with others. However, outside the breeding season and particularly in winter, several red squirrels may share a drey to keep warm. Social organization is based on dominance hierarchies within and between sexes; although males are not necessarily dominant to females, the dominant animals tend to be larger and older than subordinate animals, and dominant males tend to have larger home ranges than subordinate males or females.
Red squirrels that survive their first winter have a life expectancy of 3 years. Individuals may reach 7 years of age, and 10 in captivity. Survival is positively related to availability of autumn–winter tree seeds; on average, 75–85% of juveniles die during their first winter, and mortality is approximately 50% for winters following the first.
Although not thought to be under any threat worldwide, the red squirrel has nevertheless drastically reduced in number in the United Kingdom; especially after the grey squirrels were introduced from North America in the 1870s. Fewer than 140,000 individuals are thought to be left in 2013; approximately 85% of which are in Scotland, with the Isle of Wight being the largest haven in England. A local charity, the Wight Squirrel Project, supports red squirrel conservation on the island, and islanders are actively recommended to report any invasive greys. The population decrease in Britain is often ascribed to the introduction of the eastern grey squirrel from North America, but the loss and fragmentation of its native woodland habitat has also played a role.
In January 1998, eradication of the non-native North American grey squirrel began on the North Wales island of Anglesey. This facilitated the natural recovery of the small remnant red squirrel population. It was followed by the successful reintroduction of the red squirrel into the pine stands of Newborough Forest. Subsequent reintroductions into broadleaved woodland followed and today the island has the single largest red squirrel population in Wales. Brownsea Island in Poole Harbour is also populated exclusively by red rather than grey squirrels (approximately 200 individuals).
I'm tired of this year harsh winter, therefore I decided to post a photo taken last summer.
Tuchola Forest is a large forest near the town of Tuchola in northern Poland. It contains the Tuchola Forest National Park, which is at the core of the Tuchola Forest Biosphere Reserve, designated by UNESCO in 2010.
The forest has its untouched beauty and it's a wonderful place to explore.
A warm thank you to everyone who took the time to look, fave and comment on my picture. I appreciate it very much.
I am thrilled to have another picture in Explore. It is such a pleasant experience.
