I've been hoping for a shot like this for years! First time I've seen a white-headed LTT this close, and first time I've seen one at all in Norway. Made my day, today, although I must say ... I was hoping to do better when I first had the chance. But oh well. I was happy to have taken the day off, even if we wind up using a grace day after our book deadline (still some proof-reading to do on the index). It was a gorgeous, sunny day. I got some much-needed exercize, fresh air, sunshine ... and quite a few shots better than this one (of other species) that I'll catch up to eventually. I'll finish up October in a day or two, then speed through November, slow down for a couple of good days in December and January, and now we're starting to get better light again ... on clear days, that is.
