Magnus Berggren’s wildlife photography feels less like a straightforward look at nature and more like stepping into a quiet, shadowy story. Previously featured on Bored Panda for his dark and atmospheric animal portraits, the Swedish photographer continues to capture wildlife in a way that feels both intimate and cinematic, using mist, low light, and moody surroundings to bring out the mystery of each scene.

This new selection features more of Berggren’s striking work, with animals emerging from fog, forests, and snow in his signature low-light, high-contrast edits. Rather than showing wildlife only in bright, picture-perfect moments, his photos often lean into stillness, tension, and atmosphere, reminding us that nature can be just as haunting as it is beautiful.

    A black kite. Red kites have been brought back from the brink here in the UK. Don't think black kites come here.

    Male bullfinch. Now on the amber list having previously been on the red list. In Henry VIII's time a penny was paid for every ki lled bird l. This was because of the damage done to fruit orchards as they eat flower buds.

    Hen harrier. Sadly endangered here in the UK thanks to humans especially game keepers. They are a protected species.
