Last weekend I went on a birding trip to Latvia with Tim, Jack and Ollie where we met up with Tim and Jacks mate Gaidis who showed us around. I was using the opportunity to visit the country in preparation for some Latvia birding tours for Birding Ecotours - new Latvia itineraries coming soon!
The trip was a huge success and we found a huge number of quality birds including: Northern Hawk Owl, Ural Owl, Eurasian Pygmy Owl, Grey-headed, Eurasian Three-toed, White-backed, Middle Spotted and Back Woodpeckers, Spotted Nutcracker, Hazelhen, Black Grouse, White-tailed Eagle, Northern Goshawk, Rough-legged Buzzard, Tundra and Taiga Bean Geese, Whooper Swans, Bohemian Waxwing, Great Grey Shrike, Parrot Crossbill and lots more!

Hawk Owl - Sweden Trip Report
Here is the first of my re-edited old trip reports. Think of it as something similar to when your favourite boy band re-release an album 10 years down the line which is essentially the same as the last one issued, but slightly different in some tiny way and it costs you loads more to get the 'new' version. This is just like that, but probably not as good. However at least this is free.
This was a weekend trip to Sweden for Northern Hawk-Owl in early 2006. Hawk-Owl was one of my most-wanted species the days before I knew about Pittas...! I wasn't disappointed.
