Maanantaina kävelin Viikin arboretumin lävitse Hakalanniemeen ja sieltä takaisin kotiin. Matkalla näin naaras telkän, sorsia, naakkoja ja pienen haukan, jota en tunnistanut.
On Monday, I walked through the Viikki Arboretum to Hakalanniemi and then back home.
The Viikki arboretum is on the shore of the Baltic Sea, next to the Viikki nature reserve area. On the way I saw female Goldeneye, Mallards, Western Jackdaws and a little hawk I didn’t identify.
Helsingin Yliopiston sivu Viikin arboretum
In English, University of Helsinki: Viikki arboretum
Katselin siellä vähän aikaa lintuja eräällä ruokintapaikalla. Sinitiaisia, talitiaisia, viherpeippoja ja mustarastaita enimmäkseen. Käpytikkojakin oli liikkeellä sekä peuroja.
I watched birds there for a while at one of the feeding place. Blue tits, Great tits, Blackbirds, European Greenfinch. There were also Great Spotted woodpeckers, as well as Roe deers.
Minulla ei ollut kiikareita mukana, joten Hakalanniemessä en juuri lintuja nähnyt, paitsi variksia.
I didn't have any binoculars with me, so in Hakalanniemi I didn't see many birds except crows.

You took a wonderful series of photos during your walk Anu.
VastaaPoistaThe blue tit and the greenfinch are beautiful.
Have a nice weekend and stay healthy.
An interesting walk with good looking birds Anu. But why no binoculars?
VastaaPoistaHello Phil. Thank you for your comment. That day, the camera and camera tripod felt heavy, so I thought I couldn't carry the binoculars..
PoistaHello Anu,
VastaaPoistaIt looks like a great place to watch the birds and take a walk outdoors. Wonderful bird sightings and photos. Thank you for linking up and sharing your post. Take care, enjoy your day. Have a great weekend. PS, thank you for leaving me a comment.
Ihana kävelylenkki.
VastaaPoistaWhat a pretty place for a walk, I love that boardwalk path!
VastaaPoistaAn arboretum is always a pleasant place for a stroll, and of course one may expect to find birds there, especially when they provide feeders. You will have to go back there with your binoculars and see what else you can find. Be sure to share with us!
VastaaPoistasuch beautiful little song birds. i am going back today to check on the swan, i will call animal control!! thank you for the suggestion!!!
VastaaPoistaHello Debbie. Thank you for your comment.
PoistaIt's great if you call animal rescuers.
On your blog, tell later what happened to the swan.
Fabulous images of the arboretum Anu. Love the trees, beautiful.
VastaaPoista...I have been lazy, I don't have my feeder up yet. Love the winding path!
VastaaPoistaA great walk in the nature. Nice nature around you where you live. Good to see that the small birds are fed.
VastaaPoistaBeautiful photos, the winding path is very pretty to see. Great bird photos at the feeder. Have a wonderful weekend.
VastaaPoistaHello,
VastaaPoistawe put our feeders out this week too. Several tits are visiting now.
In Somero still warm weather.
Happy weekend to you!
Eli ei tähän aikaan vuodesta sielläkään mitään erikoisuuksia. Vaikkakin muuten mukavia.

Hello Anu, Thank you for your kind comment on my blog which led me to come over to see your blog. Excellent photos and I enjoy reading about the birds. I wonder if there are hummingbirds in Finland? John
VastaaPoistaHello John. Thank you so much for your comment.
PoistaThere are no hummingbirds in Finland. Hummingbird is a bird I wish I could see sometime. They are beautiful and wonderful birds.
Nice birds! I just love the little crooked path and the shadows of the trees.
VastaaPoistaSuch a nice place to enjoy a walk.
VastaaPoistaI liked seeing your photographs.
All the best Jan
