Today and next Tuesday, I am going to share a bunch of screenshots with you... all taken from Swedish TV's "slow television", three-week transmission, achingly beautiful Great Moose Migration! Each day I spent at least an hour, if not two or three, with this on in the background - just for the wonderful sounds if nothing else. For a lot of the time there were no moose - but lots of other life, including herds of reindeer (or one local herd showing up several times). The daylong films can be viewed for up to a year from now... or you can watch the "highlights" reel which is now scheduled in June.
I wonder, what is the bird that looks like a heron?

DeleteThat's a European Crane, Joanne - they are taller than me - and thus you! Yxx
Nature moves and soothes.
ReplyDeleteI get sucked into watching the Delta2 Eagle Cam every spring. This is very close to my sister's house and I love watching the eagles raising their babies. I used to love sitting with my sister in her yard watching the parents teach them to fly (something you can't see from the nest cam). Sometimes I really miss living in Vancouver.

ReplyDeleteThanks for the new sights sites to visit and watch the wildlife!
F would love to be somewhere like that. I saw snow (and big animals) and knew it was no place for this cat. xxx Mr T
ReplyDeleteThat looks amazing. Definitely will be taking a longer look.
ReplyDeleteCheers, Gail.
Nothing to rival nature's beauty!
ReplyDeleteSo beautiful, so serene. Strangely comforting to know there are cycles which turn beyond our own small, personal upheavals.
ReplyDeleteit#s great to see life like it is... even when we sometimes need a pillow to cover our eyes....
ReplyDeleteWe watched the first reel and it was so calming and peaceful and beautiful. Love the moose!
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful thing to watch!
ReplyDeleteJB spent the day watching curling online! The kids bought us GoogleCast, which magically puts YouTube on the TV. He's in his happy place.
So beautiful
ReplyDeleteYAM OMword these are gorgeous. Were the birds a herons?
ReplyDeletethe first photo of the reindeer resting so peacefully. One even had a red neckband.

my favories are the first two shots.. they are amazing
ReplyDeleteWhat a great way to relax and take a trip somewhere without leaving your house.
ReplyDeleteOh I like that idea - slow television. An underwater version would be good too - perhaps with the ebb and flow of tides
ReplyDeleteHi Yam - amazing what we're finding as we live through this time of restriction. These look quite wonderful and obviously help so many. Thanks for sharing and for bringing them to our notice ... great - all the best - Hilary
ReplyDeleteYou made a great selection of screen shots. I will have to find time to watch a bit of the video.
ReplyDeleteHow relaxing....My kind of background noise for sure!
ReplyDeleteThat is so relaxing I could hardly stay awake. Love nature and all the beauty and wonder. Hubby's great grandfather migrated from Sweden. namaste, janice xx
