about

22 March 2007, 1.00 p.m. Kuusamo, Kiveskoski.
There is a small stream, full to the brim with the melting snow, twisting and turning through the snow-covered landscape. The branches of the fir trees are bent low with the weight of the snow covering them and they cast long shadows on the snowdrifts as the sun shines out of a cloud-free sky. The song of the White-throated Dippers is heard once again as they sing their spring chorus. The birds are perched on jagged rocks jutting out of the sparkling stream. From time to time, one of the birds interrupts his refrain to dive into the water in search of supper. In no time at all, his lookout rock is quickly occupied by another bird, which appears from nowhere and sweeps across the water so close to the surface that its feet dip into the icy cold stream. The treetops sway in a brisk spring breeze, but down at the ground level there is shelter from the wind.
