This thread had been put on hold for the winter, but now it's time for a revival. The nice spring weather called for some outside work, and our hi-tech paint shop was ready for use :
While working outside today, Vigdis suddenly got an unexpected visitor:
I was inside when it landed just a few feet from where she was working, but she came in and told me about our new guest, so I grabbed the camera and went outside. I know these can be a little aggressive at this time of the year, so I was very careful as I approached it. I was about 6 meters (20 feet) away when I took the first pic, and I got even a little closer before it got up and strolled leisurely down the slope in the background.
