When Karin Thorell was six, her father bought her a camera, and that was when her great interest in photography started.

For 20 years she has photographed animals and nature, and on her blog and in social media you can see her feeding various animals, mainly birds, directly from her hand.

The animal pictures engage county residents

Karin's clips and pictures have been spread, and now some people from Norrbotten usually contact her when they come across certain animals.

- Some may write "you make my day".

So oh!

I would like to talk to them, I would like to answer.

The feeling is so enormous, says photographer Karin Thorell.
