“Det är svårt att fatta, men inte sedan Gustav Vasa har vi haft så mycket skog – men så olik den tidens: barrig, ung och enahanda. 92 procent av all skog i Sverige har redan varit ett kalhygge” (Zaremba, 2012).

Today a sparrowhawk landed on the lowest branch on the tree nearest me, about 1.5 meter from where I was standing, and looked me right in the eyes before taking flight again. I am sure this would have had some profound meaning, had I lived a couple of hundred years ago. Now I am afraid that I am a little uncertain as of how to interpret this omen. Cool encounter nonetheless.
