Mens forrige søndag formelig glitret
i vinterskrud, var denne helgen grundig preget av det motsatte. Det blåste
godt, det regnet, og temperaturene var alt annet enn vinterlige (noen sa
de hadde målt 10 grader ). Uken som har gått har først
og fremst vært preget av regnvær. Snøen tåler
ikke slik. Det var grått når jeg kjørte litt rundt søndag
ettermiddag og lette etter noe å ta bilder av. Så ble det nok
en gang jupiters ankomst på Garpeskjær. Lar meg stadig fasinere
av dette prektige skipet som er det største som gjør hyppige,
faste turer innom Haugesund. Akkurat i dag var jeg imidlertid glad at det
var de andre som hadde måttet krysse Nordsjøen i den. Det
må ha vært røfft!

Last Sunday was a shining winter day.
This one was just opposite. Rough weather with strong breeze / light storm,
rain and temperature at app. 10C gave us everything but fine winter days.
Last week (since the day after the winter pictures were shot) have been
rainy, and that is no good for the snow.
I brought with me my sleeping little grandchild
in my car while driving around to find some pictures for you Sunday afternoon.
At last I ended up on Garpeskjær. And what happened there? As so
often before, I took pictures of the arrival of MV Jupiter, this facinating,
large ship beeing the largest one with 2-3 weekly visits in our town.
But today, I was glad not to be among the passengers on board. I'm sure
they had a rough North sea crossing.

Hegre: Tysværs
"nasjonalfugl"
From Aage Förre I got
this description of the bird on this picture: The name of the bird [Hegre]
in English is " great blue heron". It is long-legged,long-necked, long-billed
shorebird that frequents farm ponds in warm weather. They are known for
their ability to spear frogs, fish and lizards and have excellent eyesight.
They are 4- to 5- feet tall and about 4 1/2- feet in length.
