"300 Steller' Eider, 10 White-tailed Eagles, 8 Rough-legged Buzzards, 3 Black-throated Divers, Red-necked Grebe, hundreds of Long-tailed Ducks & Velvet Scoters, Great Grey Shrike & 5 Snow Buntings. A great first 24hrs in Estonia!
Certainly quality not quantity in Estonia with White-backed Woodpecker and male Western Capercaillie the highlights from the last 24 hours, plus a few groups of Bohemian Waxwings. Good to hear Northern Bullfinches are still trumpeting just like they always did!! The second group arrives tomorrow and then we head back to the Steller's Eiders again.“

Dont think I can remember anytime like it, same places, same targets and with just better weather and seemingly more luck. Like two different worlds!“

Our cooperation with Sunbird Tours has started successfully. However, we were not lucky with the weather on the first trip, but a second trip was an amazing contrast. Read about Great Grey Owl story written by our bird guide Kaarel Võhandu here...
