Prestøya

SC 69- Seasons

Autumn colour in Kirkenes, in the far northeast of Norway near the Russian border. The shore of Prestøya is known for its many seabirds (wrong season, I only saw eiders and sandpipers) and is a joy to explore at low tide. Vegetation is mainly birch, arctic willow and a few rowans, and lots of berries (crowberry, blueberry and whortleberry) and mushrooms/toadstools in autumn.

Lovely autumn selection of berries and fungi, and the trees, although mostly leafless, are still holding on to flashes of orange and red. Did you eat some blueberries? There were loads of them growing in the Rogaland area, or maybe they were bilberries, and I used to love having a feast. Folks collected them using special combs. Lovely SC photo, Gudrun.

Gudrun replied to Amelia:

Thank you so much, Amelia! I tried all the berries but they were past their best because they had had a frost. I didn't try the fungi even though there were enough to poison half the ship;-)
