Both the closely related species, Giant goldenrod (Solidago gigantea) and Canadian goldenrod (S. canadensis), are considered invasive in Sweden. Although bees like them, spreading should be avoided, something they do both with seeds and vegetatively. #garden #plants #photography

Løefjell in Norway has a Via Ferrata prepared with iron pegs for 450 meters of climbing. The Norwegians claim it is child-friendly. Well! For me, Løefjell is more a Nordic equivalent of the naked beauty of Yosemite's Half Dome. Picture August 11, 2024. #photography #nature #mountain

On the highest cliff of Balesudden nature reserve in the Swedish High Coast, the fire started on June 5, 2008 – ironically on the site of a historic signal fire. Weeks of smoldering fire killed the pine tree roots. Pictured on September 23, 12 years later. #naturereserve #forestfire #photography

Hooded false morel, Gyromitra infula, was once regarded as an edible relative to the False morel, G. esculenta. Nowadays it is also avoided as it also contains some gyromitrin and may easily be confused with the poisonous G. ambigua. Picture 29 September 2017 #photography #mushrooms #morel
