A seven-degree rise in night temperatures makes the scenery look like this in the mornings. It takes hours for the fog to evaporate. I don´t mind because I like the softness ja humidity of the air.
I was pretty amazed to see cattle outside in the middle of April. They didn´t want to pose for me at all. They must have been half asleep. So was I.
The theme of today´s Photo Thursday is domestic. Going global reduces the number of really domestic things. That is why I selected this picture of our traditional way of making hay. We used to have fun while making hay. We had the sauna every evening. I don´t know how fantastic it is these days when one man can manage making hay all alone.

The challenge word of this week´s Photo Thursday ´mörkö´ cannot easily be rendered in English. It means ´something spooky´. As a child I was afraid of mörkös almost everywhere, under the bed, in the dark, in the forests, in lakes and marshlands. I suppose every human being has a mörkö of his or her own. It may be some unexplainable phobia eg. As to me, the animal in the photo above startled me at first until I was told it was harmless.
