Birdwatching Excursions for Individuals in Oulu and Kuusamo 2011

To meet the great demand Finnature will again arrange guided birdwatching excursions in Oulu and Kuusamo areas in early summer 2011. This region offers without any doubt the best birdwatching area in Finland. In a fairly small area most of the special Finnish bird species can be found! In a good year there are Eagle-, Great Grey-, Ural-, Hawk-, Short-eared-, Long eared-, Tengmalm’s- and Pygmy Owls breeding between Oulu and Kuusamo area. Other specialities include Red-flanked Bluetail, Rustic Bunting and Siberian Tit and - Jay. All four Finnish grouse species are also possible to see during these excursions.

Please also notice that the nestsite location is not public information and while signing in to join our excursions, you agree that you will not pass the information onwards.This is purely the safety matter and is essential for the welfare of the breeding owls!

Thank You for all those who have previously participated in to Finnature´s ever so popular "Birdwatching excursions for individuals" in Oulu and Kuusamo areas. With your continuos support we will be able to provide many new nestboxes for species like Pygmy Owl, Tengmalm´s Owl and Ural Owl. We will also continue building new nest platforms for Great Grey Owl.

According to the book 100 great birdwatching sites in the world: "Oulu might be the best place in the world to see magnificent Great Grey Owl"...
