Journalists from Great Britain (Bird Watching), Netherlands (Grasduinen), Sweden(Sveriges Natur) and Finland (Suomen Luonto ja Finlands Nature) as well as travel agency representatives from Great Britan and Belgium participated in the 6-day tour.
The introductory tour covered bird migration observation of West Estonia, Hiiumaa and Pärnu county.

Despite the rainy and windy weather, over 140 different bird species were spotted. The tour also observed mammals such as moose, deer, fox, pine marten, raccoon dog and even ringed seal.
Participants of the tour were pleasantly surprised of the well kept and quality hiking trails, walk paths, bird observation towers and accomodation establishments.

Descriptions of this positive tour experience will be appearing in different magazines in the coming months.
