Poland. Birds of Prey.

Poland delivered on the raptor front with sightings of both Great Spotted and Lesser Spotted Eagles as well as Honey Buzzard, Common Buzzard ,Montague's and Marsh Harrier and Kestrel. Nice to see the Eagles well as they flew directly overhead giving the chance for some photos , the Great Spotted being a new bird for me. The Honey Buzzard flew through a clearing in the forest giving a brief opportunity for a quick pic.

Poland. White Winged Terns.

Such elegant birds.

Poland. Black Terns.

Just come back from an enjoyable week in Poland, visiting the Biebraza National Park and the Bialowieza forest areas. Lots of great species seen , but I think my favourites were the Marsh Terns, with both Black nad White Winged at close quarters. Here are a few Black Tern photos to go on with.
