During June our staff photographer, Gabor
Vasuta visited several of our regular birding
sites in Slovenia and Croatia,
which is a great help, since I am very short of good bird
pictures from there (I don't like big lenses to carry, especially
not on tours). This was his third phototour, and with my instructions
he succesfully photographed almost all the wanted species,
but Tengmalm's Owl and Ptarmigan. Here is a great selection
from his pictures. Beautiful birds and butterflies what we
always see on our tours.
