Offering a wonderful contrast to birds of the sea, which is the main focus of this itinerary, we enjoy a morning session at forest feeders, in Finnish Lapland. Passerines take full advantage of the very well stocked feeding stations here throughout the hard winter months.

Pine Grosbeak is perhaps the most eye-catching of these, but specialities such as Siberian Tit and Siberian Jay are also popular, whilst Arctic and Common Redpoll are also found in good numbers here. Other species which may also put in an appearance here are Northern Bullfinch, Willow Tit and Lesser-spotted Woodpecker. With birds on authentic feeders, deep snow and snow-covered tree-branches the photographic opportunities here are excellent, often with birds down to just a few metres
