Eurasian nuthatch.
This hungry fellow was eating while hanging from the branches directly over my head.
I almost fell backwards trying to find him in the Viewfinder.

Green european woodpecker.
I was standing beside an abandoned small house when this beautiful bird flew right past me. Luckily it landed on a tree stump
a couple yards away. This is the first time i have been able to photograph this spieces so i was really thrilled to get close to it.

Common pheasant.
He was looking for food in the grass and didn´t seem to care that i was taking pictures of him.

Three interesting shots there, especially the Green Woodpecker. I didn't know those were native to Sweden. He'll have landed on the tree stump looking for ants, his favourite food.
