Birding is one of man's most beautiful passions. Is a hobby, but the birding hobby involves advanced knowledge about the birds life, as well as about the geography, weather, hidrology, photography, optics, etc. This blog will have the support of a very good brdwatcher and birdwatching guide, who's name I'll reveal soon, after his approval.

I'll post my birds pictures, advices about birding and some birding places in Europe. I'll try to give a short description of birds, species and the places where I've seen them.

You are invited to post comments, to argue on the birds' identification or to add more hints.

Ardea Cinerea

The Grey Heron




Here is a Grey Heron (Ardea Cinerea) that I spot in Skansen, Stockholm. The funny thing is that , even if Skansen is an open air museum and Zoo, the heron was just hanging around, not being in the zoo but in totally freedom. Maybe looking for some food.
