About a month since I posted last time. I have had only few short visits to see some rare birds, but that´s really all.
On 31st of October I had too nice birds when I first twitched Dusky Warbler from Vanhankaupunginlahti and after that a short visit to city center where I had my first Caspian Gull in Helsinki ever. Both seen only with binoculars and I didn´t have my camera with me.
ON 9th of November I had terrible news.. Ancient Murrelet in Kirkkonummi and I was stuck at work... For fuck sake.. I was a bit upset, but no chance. I felt little bit better when I saw my second ever Isabelline Wheatear in Vuosaari that same day. It was almost dark when I arrived to the site after my day at work and got these awesome record shots... 47th for Finland, so still pretty rare here.
Last light Isabelline Wheatear. |
On 12th I had juvenile Golden Eagle from Hertoniemi and today (13th) I went to see Ural Owl with my kids, and finally after searching it for a while it was found near the place we were standing. Owls are really good at hiding and the might look at you and you have no idea where they are.. Anyway, few poor shots before the bird took of and we had to continue to have some lunch.
Bird was hiding high up in the tree. |
Never too easy to photograph these.. |
More birds later, I hope.
