November has been good

November weather has been good in the North of Iceland. Even though we are in the sixth week of winter now, there has hardly been any snow on the fields. Farmers and livestock have been enjoying the mild weather and in many places farm animals like sheep and cattle have been seen outside, which is not usual at this time of year.

By the fjord Eyjafjörður, sheep and other farm animals have been enjoying the outdoors. However, things have and will change as we are now at the beginning of December, snow, colder weather and shorter daylight hours, are ahead of us.
