Birds in Norway

Just a few shots of the birds taken from the "White-tailed Sea Eagle" hide about 70 kms north of Trondheim.

The eagles put in a brief appearance on the ice at the side of the ocean but never came to the bait which was out in the snow.

I took 4 shots of an eagle in about 20 secs before it and it's pals flew off and our only other views were of them making occassional sorties above the area and sitting in the conifers about 100 metres away...... just teasing us!

I've also included the other classic carrion eaters, Magpie, Hooded Crow & Great black-backed Gull which all turned up during the 10 hours + we spent in the hide!
