Members of the Retuperä Voluntary Fire Brigade Band, Vappu celebration, Helsinki. The Walpurgis celebration is kicked off on April 30 when students using modern technology (alcohol, a cherry-picker and harnesses) are lowered onto the Havis Amanda statue in the Kauppatori square, to place a cap on her head. This is accomplished amid much drinking. Meanwhile, the Retuperä Voluntary Fire Brigade Band does its best to make the occasion memorable, occasionally (and despite their best efforts) playing the correct notes.

Eurasian eagle owl, Mannerheimintie, Helsinki. In 2011 a nest with three hatchlings was discovered on a building along one of the main avenues in Helsinki. The owlets are huge, as this is about the largest species of owl. This one had tried out its wings and landed on the sidewalk, drawing a crowd before it was collected by guards and put back in its nest.
