🔵 🔴 🟡 What do these marks stand for? In every Finnish national park, hiking routes are marked with specific colors. Each park has an info board with a map that explains which color corresponds to each route. 🗺️ So, when you begin your hike, simply follow your designated color to stay on track! 👣🍃 This path, for instance, begins with all three colors, and as you continue, you’ll choose and follow your preferred color. It’s an easy way to stay on course and hard to get lost. 😊🌲

What are Canadian Geese saying to each other? 🪿

What are Canadian Geese saying to each other? 🪿💬 The Canada geese are using sounds like honks, cluck sounds, calls and even body language for communication. 🗣
And they are using different calls for different scenarios. ✈️ Talking during flight - each goose use different honking pattern to coordinate their movements and positions. 🪶 💏 Responding to mates - for attraction they can use long rhythmic honks together with shorter frequent honks. 😙 🆘 Warning of intruders - goose are territorial and are willing to protect their families so when you hear them using loud calls and hisses it’s time to step away! ✋ 🚨 Informing of potential danger - they really can sound like car alarms when they warn other goose from potential danger, louder the honk bigger the threat. 📢 👋 When they recognize a familiar goose and when they want to be recognized - each goose has its own special honk, which helps them stay connected and find certain friends in the group. It helps then feel like they belong and makes the group even stronger. 💪 🪺 Goslings also make calls to their parents while still in their eggs! Parents then use a variety of call types to communicate with their young geese. 🐣 🙋 Don't forget about body language! When honking is the primary form of communication, they also use their body languages to send messages. 👯 👉 If you are wondering what geese are saying, watch how they move. 👀 They tilt their heads, stretch their necks, and flap their wings along with honking to talk to their group. They use specific movements e.g. in hierarchy, mating and threats. 🪿🪿🪿

Forests are full of life that we can easily miss.

Forests are full of life that we can easily miss. 🦉🫎🦫 Sometimes on the ground we find deer tracks, moose poop, osprey feathers, and many other things that provide us with proof that these wild animals are around. 🪶
They are just good at hiding. 🫣😅 Typically when the grass moves around, you can find reptiles such as frogs or small lizards. Sometimes even snakes! 🐍
Or legless lizards (aren’t they just snakes tho? Apparently not😄) What kind of wildlife do you usually spot in forests? 👀 Small or big? 🐞🐛🦅
