This picture is from an beaver hunt in Tufsingdalen/Hedmark/Norway.
Beaver is one of the very few species that are allowed to hunt during spring. That's because there are only beaver males that are active during the hunting season. |

Arve is studying the work of a beaver. Some clear evidence of beaver activity in this area! |
|
|
|
|
|
A way of hunting beaver is to float downstream with a boat on the river. |

Arve has shot a moose in Østerdalen. We hunted moose for some years, but not any longer. It just became to much for us during a hectic season - it isn't time enought to do all... |

Joachim and his old vorsteher, Dixie. She hunted with us for some days this year and found several blackcocks. |

This place is great place for blackcock. The blackcocks are shy and extreamly difficult to hunt - I guess that's partly why we do it... |

Hunting cormorant and eider duck at Arnes place.
The incredibly shy cormorants were hard to get close enough, but we succeeded a couple of times. |

In Norway we have good traditions of eating almost everything we shoot - from reindeer, moose and roe-deer to birds.
The cormorants and the eider ducks are both very tasty if you cut off all the fat. |

Grouse hunting on Sørøya |

Sørøya is an island far north in Norway - 70° N - and the nature is wild and beautiful - next stop is the North Pole... |
