It was meant to start on April 22.

@lichtscheu Oh wow! That’s so funny!

On the first day we had a beaver who fell through the ice and really struggled to get up.
Never seen anything like it before. 🦫

@kolombiken

I love your updates and screenshots so much

[kolombiken@front-end.social]

@wurzelmann It got up eventually. But yes. 🥺

[kolombiken@front-end.social]

Our first swimmer was not a moose. It was this one.

People watching call it “enhorningen” (the unihorn).

@kolombiken Weird, it could have just swam under the ice to open water. They can stay under for quite awhile.

[kolombiken@front-end.social]

@GPJohnston Exactly! Extremely weird.

[kolombiken@front-end.social]

We got our two first sneaky meese swimmers!

They were never caught in the main broadcast but there is a broadcast on the side with extra cameras.

Lots of swimmers today but the majority was swimming sneakily at night or when the production wasn’t looking.

Lets go through them anyway!

First we had two swimmers just before four in the morning. Only caught by the extra cameras.

@kolombiken I have stumbled upon this and while I have little understanding of where or why I love it! Delightful to watch and hopefully see an animal moving by. Thank you for sharing. Slow TV is the best.

[kolombiken@front-end.social]

Only about ten minutes later two more swimmers appeared in the same spot!

#dsäv

[kolombiken@front-end.social]

It’s now daytime and somehow the production missed 5 meese swimming at lunch time.
(Maybe they were eating a sandwich or something?)

So again the only cameras who caught them were the extra cameras. This image is from a rerun from the extra cameras.

11 swimmers in total now.

#dsäv

[kolombiken@front-end.social]

First meese caught by the main broadcast were these three.
Only one made it to the other side. The other two changed their minds and turned.

12 swimmers in total.

#dsäv

[kolombiken@front-end.social]

Two more quickly crossed the river a bit later and they were barely caught on camera.

14 in total.
