'Fuglekassen' is the continuation in Norwegian of The Birdbox Essay, which went in English. Now and then 'Fuglekassen' will bring parallels in English, or texts only in English, and these bilingual efforts (for a sincere greeting and for a modest credit to all my international friends) might be announced by this grey subtext below the essay's maroon basic logo.

Fall fall

Took down a birch yesterday to make the view more open. However, it was after I took a picture of the fallen birch I fully discovered the view.

 

Syn for utsyn

Felte ei bjørk i går, for å få friare utsyn, men fyrst da eg tok bilde av bjørka da ho låg der, fekk eg fullt syn for utsynet.
