Welcome to my blog!

My name is Mikael Johansson and I am an amateur photographer from Sweden. This is my photo blog.  I mainly present pictures of wildlife, especially birds. I started to photograph birds 2008 and the main purpose with this blog is to show some of the pictures, get criticism and develop my photographic skills.

I work a lot with sportfishing (travel agency and magazine). Now and then I will post pictures from some of my travels. Eventually I will collect them all in an archive.

Every new bird species I photograph can be found in the archive. Click on Birds in the menu above. There are lots of documentation pictures, but also som good ones.

Please leave a comment!

Enjoy your stay!

Mikael

Addicted to Mullets


It´s been over a month since I updated my blog. Sorry. I have been busy chasing mullets on the westcoast of Sweden. This mysterious fish has taken over my mind and I must admit that I´ve become addicted to these powerful creatures. I have not given up on the bird photography, but until I find out how to catch the biggest mullet – no blogging :)

I saw House Sparrows on almost every little island in the huge Lake Nasser (500 kilometers long) during my last trip. Their nests could be found inside rocks and cavities. Really nice to see this ”city bird” in the wild!
