digiscoping

In this one, taken in a strong backlight, I enhanced the contrast and turned it b/w

During June Eleonora's falcons make a short detour to inland Spain before finally getting to their breeding grounds in the Mediterranean islands, and I can see them near home

In the very same spot as white-headed ducks a nervous little grebe crossed quickly in front of the scope

White-headed duck diving

Two males and a female were patrolling a narrow channel amongst the reeds, allowing for close views (come indeed too close for digiscoping!)

We located this individual late in the afternoon in company of three British birders last Easter at Arrocampo reservoir in Extremadura. Next the morning I was lucky to relocate it in the same pole by the road and find a spot to park my van near the pole and position myself inside with digiscope...

A griffon flying to close to the imperial's nest was immediately answered

I was looking eagerly to have some time to try the digiscoping rig on this spot, being quite happy with the results
