Baby rabbit near Öresundsbron – The great Öresund Bridge stretches across the sea like a ribbon of steel and sky, but beneath its mighty span, something much smaller caught my eye — a flicker of fur, a hop through fresh spring grass. A baby rabbit, barely bigger than my hand, darting through a patch of clover…

Feral pigeon in flight over Kungsparken – There are birds we chase for rarity, and then there are birds that chase us — following us through the city, gathering at our feet, nesting in our architecture.
