KTH, 21-5-2011

Since a portrait photography session will take place in KTH Royal Institute of Technology next weekend, I paid a brief visit in advance. Before we start to get some record shots, my wife and I were having lunch on the grassland adjacent to the campus. It was a great day, although it was a bit windy. Chaffinch was singing on the tree, fieldfares, wagtail, pigeon, magpie and blackbirds were actively feeding on the ground. The environment is nice, Norra Djurgården National Urban Park and Uggleviken Wetland are just located next to the campus, perhaps I will return again very soon, for birding.
