Hej igen! Varför vill du inte att man ska kunna skriva svar till dina bloggs? Tycker det vore intressant om man fick skriva av sig om vad du säger, Om man har en blogg så borde man omfamna kritik och beröm? Tråkigt att det bara går att läsa dina åsikter och inte reflektioner på dom! Hoppas en sådan aktiv bloggare som du själv låter mig och andra kommentera. Mvh Eila

Hej Eila!
Tack för din kommentar. Det är mkt möjligt att jag i veckan ändrar så att det är fritt att kommentera! Det har varit lite ” bad blood ” i ca 1 år mellan vissa av oss aktiva, och jag fick nazistiska kommentarer , som fick droppen att rinna över.
Annars gillar jag en tuff diskussion, det får inte bli för mkt personangrepp, och jag gillar humor.

MVH,
Ann
PS. Mina blogposter är öppna i 2 dagar, det är exakt samma regler som för tidningarnars kommentators poster.

Hi, thank you for following my blog!

The “havehest” in your bl;og URL means “seahorse”, doesn’t it?
narhvalur on February 21, 2012 at 12:34 pm said:

Hi, yes it means Seahorse in Norwegian , but mainly it means a Fulmar!!!!!
petrel41 on February 21, 2012 at 12:53 pm said:

Google Translate gives for seahorse in Swedish “sjöhäst”; in Norwegian: “sjøhest”.

It translates fulmar as havhest in Norwegian; as stormfågel in Swedish.

I like your blog, Ann. It’s where I go to relax and look at some nature and learn a bit about our natural world. And for some fond memories of Europe.

One can never learn all there is to know. There is simply too much diversity to learn it all, thankfully.

Thanks for all your hard work! It really is an accomplishment for you to be proud of.

Here is a beautiful picture for you. One of my Twitter friends captured it.

Very Best Regards to you, John Brian Shannon

Hello Ann, I admire your blog so much, even though some of your posts are painful (but necessary) to see in order to make people aware of the horrible injustices done to animals.

johnbrianshannon on March 24, 2012 at 7:36 am said:

Hi Ann,

It would be a shame if you had to shut down your blog, just because of one deviant personality who posts hateful comments on your site.

As much as many of us like reading through the community of comments on your blog, it would be much-preferable if you could just “turn off” comments for a while. Maybe he will get bored and go away. At least then, we could still visit your site to see your recent pictures!

Very Best Regards, JBS
narhvalur on March 24, 2012 at 10:19 am said:

Thanks John!
I’m really a bit sad that my animal site did turn out to be pice of the Plestine conflict. I deal with other issues.

All the best,
Ann

johnbrianshannon on March 27, 2012 at 7:13 am said:

Hi Ann,

Glad to see you are still publishing.

I don’t know if it is really appropriate for me to post bird snapshots on this thread, but everytime I see a nice wildlife shot, I think of your site! If you tell me to not post them, I will understand, the “About” page is not really for that, I think. If you want me to send pics to you somewhere else, then pls. just let me know. Expect about 1 per week. Are you on Twitter, if so, then maybe I could send them to you there.

Best Regards, JBS

John! I shall publish your bird photos on the main site! Cheers, Ann
johnbrianshannon on March 29, 2012 at 5:49 am said:

Wow, thanks Ann!

Thank you for publishing the Blackburnian Warblers picture on your main site. It looks great! Really first class, Ann. Much appreciated.

(I can’t take credit for the picture, Derek Thomas was the photographer on that pic, I believe).

You added all that information, how great is that! Very kind of you.

Thanks for all your work. I don’t know how many visitors you get per day, but it must be in the high hundreds or high thousands, worldwide every day. Just think of all the days you are brightening for real people, every day!

I’ll try to submit a complete, proper bird blog next month sometime.

Best Regards, JBS

narhvalur on April 7, 2012 at 10:23 pm said:

You are completely right centaur. I have a love for animals but I’m independent, no member of any organisation except a bird organisation. I have met very sick people among animal rights activists….they talk and collect money , but save no animals!
centaur2dot0 on April 8, 2012 at 10:19 am said:

I love animals and eat animals. I neither associate nor disassociate with animal activism, not until i get to the truth of it in details. Having said that, overall i have found good reasons as to why we should care for animals.
All my life i have tried to surround my life with beautiful people and succeeded to an extent. But i am pleasantly surprised to meet decent human beings so easily on the blogging community.
If i knew it before, i would have blogged instead of focusing my entire efforts elsewhere.
Nice meeting you Ann.

I am sorry to hear that….but I know the world has changed…what happened to civility and humanity…kindness and the gentle spirit I grew up in. I was born in 1953 and things were so different plus living out here in such a isolated place. We used to get maybe ten cars traveling by our home but now often it is more like 100…most are looking for things to steal…so I know…it is not right and am so sorry that anyone would try to harm your blog and or your work! We can fight by not allowing the evil in the world to ruin our lives….right? I stand with you!

I think you are right on. I have not seen it this bad but to me from some of the horse shows our family participated in we saw parents whipping and yanking on horses to make them perform for their children to win champion…awful!

The abuse the Hackney was getting was deplorable horrible…awful…as you see I am ready to fight hard for the horses or animals!!!
