Agnes Granberg, an 18-year-old student from Boden, has reached the finals of the Swedish birdhouse championship, according to local media reports. The competition, organized by Naturskyddsföreningen (the Swedish Society for Nature Conservation), reportedly received a record 977 entries from 92 schools across the country. Granberg, who studies in the technical program at Björknäsgymnasiet, is one of 15 finalists competing in the high school category.
Her entry, named "Timeless," was created from a wall clock after initially considering using a saucepan for the project. "I am very proud to get to represent Norrbotten," Granberg told Norrländska Socialdemokraten. The competition features three age categories, with Granberg competing against other high school students.
