27-9-2024. Autumn is here and so is migration time. I'm happy to live only 35 minutes from one of Sweden's best bird-lakes in Sweden - Hjälstaviken. It opens for spontaneous tours and my kids followed me there practically every other weekend when they grew up. So even yesterday when one of the sons called and suggested a tour. And what day! Between 5-10 000 geese and 6 species, cranes in their thousands, White-tailed eagles, tons of ducks and waders, Merlin (stenfalk), Hen harrier - a beautiful blue male (blå kärrhök), Rough-legged buzzard and many others. The geese were very active and here in the image are Barnacle goose and Greylag goose (vitkindad och grågås). I love to bring motion in the image but it takes a lot of shooting, tons of images, and camera work to get a few with some sharpness on low shutter speeds. LEICA VARIO-ELMAR-SL 100-400 f/5-6.3.
