Successful shots of bird migration

A nice specimen of Red-breasted Goose - rare and protected (III category) migratory goose species in Estonia - was repeatedly spotted during latest weeks. Several wildlife photo enthusiasts had good opportunities to take nice pictures of this bird.

The Pied Avocet (Recurvirostra avocetta) is a remarkable black and white wader in the avocet and stilt family. It has been breeding in the western coast western archipelago of Estonia for several decades by now. Still it can surprise us sometimes.
