Anneli page update
I have moved Anneli’s photo gallery, and added an “all about Anneli” page and the story of her birth. You can find all this here
If you bookmarked the old Anneli photo page, please update your bookmarks now!
signs of spring
Last week we had another fairly decent fall of snow:

and although it wasn’t that terribly cold, we lit the fire for some winter atmosphere.

The snow melted almost immediately and a couple of days later the temperature reached a scorching 15°. This week, there are some definite signs of spring, like blue skies:

and crocuses in the garden:

(How’d they get there? We will never know … )
Little Anneli is getting bigger and cuter all the time. There are some new photos on her photo page here.
moose sighting
At last, I can report my first moose sighting. Last week we were out for a drive near Fjärås, getting lost, when we stumbled into a residential suburb on the far side of Kungsbacka. Linus suddenly said “LookAtThatLookAtThatLookAtThat”, and indeed there was something to look at – two moose, a mother and a calf, were jumping over a hedge into someone’s front garden!
Sadly I have no photos to corroborate my story. We swung the car around to try & get another look, with Mum in the back seat ready with her camera … but by the time we got back to where we’d seen them, they were trotting away behind someone’s house.
In other wildlife news, we have had 3 small deer paying visits to our house a few times in the last couple of weeks and have also spotted woodpeckers and robins in our garden.
