It looks like a squirrel, climbs like a squirrel, barks like a squirrel. Weird things in the #forests of #Polesia.

We should start every day by visiting our neighbor. #Polesia

This power pole is fifty or sixty years old. Made of reinforced concrete, it holds up the wires that bring electric power to our house. If it fails it will be replaced by a plastic pole, and I have no idea how long it would last. Guess we have to go completely off-grid. #Polesia #IdąPsięta

After almost a week without driving from my house I finally went to the nearest village store to buy some food. I think I shouldn't repeat another expedition like that before spring. #Polesia #Wetlands #RuralRoads

The sun set many hours ago in #Polesia . Time to go to sleep.

#Wetlands are wet, they are happy. Our #dogs, #IdąPsięta, are wet, some are happy, some not. Our bedsheets will suffer from the canine vectored transfer of wetness. We're not happy about that, but generally we're happy. #DogsOfMastodon #Polesia

On today's walk in the #wetlands #forests of #Polesia we found remnants of the spirit of Christmas.

Something delicious must have died here. Or became delicious some time after it died. #IdąPsięta #DogsOfMastodon #Polesia

A Christmas walk with #IdąPsięta in #Polesia, Poland. In Poland smiling is – officially – regarded as not natural. Now you understand why. #DogsOfMastodon

Thaw in our #wetlands in #Polesia

This Acer rubrum disrupts the basic colours of our forest. It's an invasive species here in #Polesia, but we won't cut it down. We're an invasive species here too.

Bruno inspecting the #wetlands. We have thaw and snow is slowly melting but at temperatures around 4°C it will take many days before it disappears. #IdąPsięta #Polesia

Winter warfare in #Polesia. #IdąPsięta #DogsOfMastodon

One of those neighbours whom we really like. They don't bother us, we don't bother them.

We had no idea what made this little dog run into deep snow. #IdąPsięta #Polesia #RuralLife

They're getting closer and closer.

One of them loves snow. The other hates it. Both are happy there's no way I could drive them to the vet today (this is our only road to the outside world). #IdąPsięta #DogsOfMastodon #Polesia #EasternPoland
