Drove to Hägerstalund and Hansta nature reserve to walk among the anemones. Nature delivered – endless seas of white anemones everywhere.

The woods there look like they belong in a picture book. As if any moment now, a group of singing elves will glide past in the distance. Or, at the very least, a group of hobbits.

There were many more liverworts flowering than I recall here seeing before. Perhaps I came earlier in the season than in previous years?




There were also some odd blue anemones, that almost looked like a hybrid between anemone and liverwort. Which is not botanically possible, I believe – even if the Swedish names of the two are very similar and make it sound as if the flowers are very closely related.
