Stadig mindre is og stadig mer fugl å se om dagen nå. Godt er det :o) Flott det siste bildet, det så i grunn kaldt ut... men det var pent med dråpene som ligger på fjæra.
Staggering that they can withstand water that cold isn't it? That pond can't be but a couple of degrees above freezing, but it doesn't seem to bother them a bit.
Great photos as always. I'd love to know how you got close enough to get that last one! Did you bribe them with food?
Rune; Ja det er deilig at det minker på snøen nå! Går litt tregt synes jeg - men det lysner!
Mojo; (laughing..) Of course I bribed them with food! Everyone does, visiting that lake! have to say, the birds are very familiar with people there, it is a very popular place to watch birds - ore simply go for a walk.
Va tusan. Sjön är ju helt isfri. Det var ju ganska fräckt. Våra börjar just nu att smälta men än så länge ligger sörjan kvar mestadels. Nä alvarsamt talat så är det här ju väldigt trevliga bilder och den sista tog mej med häpnad. Måste rikstigt titta några gånger på den förrän jag fattade vad det var.
What great shots! I love the way you have gotten closer with each photo! I was so impressed with the second shot, the reflection of that patch of blue sky, but then I scrolled down to the third shot, and just gasped! The detail is astounding!! The water droplets, especially!

They are all lovely, but the last one is so different, I just love it.

Ha, the last one is just so unique. Like Mojo, how did you come that close?

But to be honest - I cropped the photo! :)
Oh my hat's off to them for being able to withstand the cold waters. Great capture.
Love the water drops on the mallard in the last photo. Great captures.

I'll bet the ducks and geese are some happy to finally see open water on a regular basis! I know I am ; )
Nice feet!
It always amazes me that water fowl swim in icy water. Nice photos!
Great photos! I love the Mallard foot shot!
These were great. My favorite kind of shots - water. :-D I lie the detail in that last shot. You can see the drops of water on its feathers.
Great leg shot. I often forget just how colorful duck legs can be.
So it's still cold in Norway. I, too, think the wet duck belly is fabulous.
:) Beautiful. The last photo is very unique.
I love the feet in the water!
Wonderful shots! They send shivers - I wouldn't my feet in there. :)
I love that last one - super!
Lovely! the last photo is my favourite.
Så koselige bilder.Flotte fugler.
Ha en fin dag!
It always amazes me that they can swim in such cold water and seem to be enjoying it. Graeat shots!
loved the third capture. Great perspective!
I love the texture on the last shot....great close up. They look like they're having fun in spite of the chill in the air and water!
I see that its still very icy there. Love your photos, that last one is a cute shot!
Enjoy your day!

Great great close up shot!!!
Look at all of them swimming around - Very nice photos!!!
Beautiful mallards! We have them also! I once tried to lure them into my house, but they didn't dare! Ha det bra!
It's good to see that some of the ice has melted. You got great pictures for Watery Wednesday.

No doubt that Østensjøvannet is something special regarding wild birds.
The last photo is nothing but excellent
