Review of 10 months

What I have found in the garden and the forest in the last ten months, I don't always find a lot of things here because there has been a lot of movement in the forest by people lately. But this post has a small overview that I always find something here at certain times, if I try to go for a walk every day and keep my eyes open... Then after a long wait and walking something jumps out of the bushes or something crawls across the road in the warm summer heat.

But the main animals here are always in the forest,

A fox
Wild deer
There are always two moose too, very hard to get here.
A raccoon dog, however, always moves at night.
The weasel, I see from time to time, quickly disappears into the big hay and can't be found after that.
The Estonian grey hare looks like a big dog
European viper - very poisonous

But besides that, there are also some birds, the rarest of which is the owl, which I have seen only twice in 8 years.

This what I see here in small forest what I have close to my home

---

Lizards are the most common things that can be found here in summer, especially when the sun is very strong and hot, these little creatures come out and sunbathe on big rocks or old stumps to get some sun.

---

But here are also birds that have just emerged from their eggs and are waiting to eat something. They sit on the garden soil with vicious faces and wait for someone to notice them, this how green summer starts what fresh birds.

---

But if you go to the forest, even in early summer you can see large birds that have just arrived and scream over the large grassland, these are storks , They eat everything that moves in the hay, mice, snakes and even baby birds that are the size of a finger, which can be a big mouthful in times of great hunger.

---

But frogs, they are animals that come immediately after the mud melts, they usually freeze somewhere in the mud with a larger pond of water and wake up before it melts.

---

But Bugs, they come out very fast what first strong sun ... this are the fastest ones .. flies :))

Spiders, very good to photograph in the garden in the summer, because they always have an alien look and the bigger I find, the more beautiful the picture I can get, then I don't need to find a way to be as close as possible with the lens, which these spiders don't like very much

I don't know what cabbage worm it is, but there were a lot of them on the greenhouse, and I got a lot of good pictures with them, some of them even looked very futuristic.

---

Here it is also good to hunt for the sun, which is trying to shine under the forest, where it is usually difficult for the light to reach when the trees are thickly full of leaves. And then some day there was also FOX out I did not get in this summer day there very close, but I was see it was eat something there ...

---

But here on these two pictures you can see that sometimes I'm also lucky to get close to some rare birds, this black woodpecker is the largest species of woodpecker in Estonia, it makes a loud sound when it calls, and also a loud sound when it hit dry trees with its beak. But this Fox here ...hmmm.. within the first month of this year I got the chance to be right on the path of the fox where it was walking straight towards me and I had to wait for him to come in front of me and I get this strong picture, here it is fluffy from the cold and his fur looks great.

---

But here is a picture of a deer quietly creeping through the bushes, which I also did. Here, this time I was the one who was able to hiddenly see him before it sees me immediately.

I did all this photos in 2023 ... some I have more, I try post one this post soon more. But I still have two more months before 2024 begins so I hope I get something more soon.
