Summertime is busy, spending quality time with my family :) Photography has a lower priority this time of year.  However, today I got time to hike in the mountains. Brought a large arsenal of lenses. Did not spot many birds, so I could perhaps have spared myself carrying the 500mm..... Mountain flowers became todays main motive. Got some pictures of a Northern Wolfsbane (Tyrihjelm) and Wood Cranesbill (Skogstorknebb). The Willow Warblers (Løvsanger) were still quite busy.

 Been quite busy at "daytime" job lately. So I have not been able to spend time out in field. However,
today I got an opportunity to take some pictures of a big "bird" while driving company boat :)
