    European Golden Plover

    I took this shot around midnight. The bird was standing on a slight elevation, so I could make the picture with a low point of view.

    Varanger Fjord and Northern Finland by Public Transport - March 2023

    Nice report. Good read. I hope to visit the area in May 2024 when I go there on a birding trip. The chances of seeing Steller’s and King Eider will be less than in winter though. Greetings, Leo

    Iceland June 2023

    Early June I went on a birding trip to Iceland. I made a tripreport with a lot of pictures. The link to my tripreport is https://www.cloudbirders.com/be4/download?filename=TUKKER_Iceland_06_2023-NL.pdf Although the link suggests it‘s in Dutch, don’t worry. It’s in English.

    Lesvos 1-15 May 2023

    I have seen an Ottoman Viper once in 2017, while walking in a valley just south of the village of Napi. Also in 2017 I saw a Caspian Whipsnake on the road near Faneromeni and a couple of times I saw a Dice Snake. The picture was taken at the Kalloni Pool in Skala Kallonis.

    We went for a short trip to Poland to photograph White-tailed Eagles and it was a very successful trip with lots of Eagles before the hides every day.

    This beautiful Heron is staying relatively close to my hometown. Here the bird was taking care of his feathers.
