Mountain heath
We were up on the North Norwegian mountain heath, mire and woodland today, in a very remote place close to the Finnish border. Wonderful light after a shower of rain.
A dunlin stands on a mossy hummock watching over his chicks.
A grand old mountain birch tree, probably hundreds of years old, and grown in a natural twisted form, unlike most of the trees close to roads or easy access where they grow in a close coppiced form.
Intricate tapestries of lichens covered the ground
