Lazy Sunday

... or not? It was a partly lazy Sunday, having an easy morning, Hjördís and her friend Sigrún playing, Ingólfur preparing lunch and me looking out of the window. Guess what I saw there! A gyrfalcon, the biggest falcon in the world. It was just sitting on the fence close to our flat, endangering some ducks in the harbour. I was lucky enough to have my camera ready and walked out with the girls to have a closer look. The falcon had a good look at us too, before it opened it's wings and took off. I'd guess it was a young female regarding size and blueish-grey colour on the upper beak around the nostrils.
After lunch we went to Saltvík to start the not-lazy part of the day. Hjördís asked to ride Farsæll and was happy to get a Yes from us. I thought it was time to teach them a bit and show Hjördís how to ride trott better. They did fine, especially after I took Farsæll on the longe and Hjördís was able to concentrate completely on what she should do. So nice to watch how much Farsæll is taking care of Hjördís.
