Join us for the birdwatching in remote Inari to observe local birds, which we help to survive the long winter by feeding them. The activity is in our backyard where Siberian Jay, Siberian Tit and Great Tit are commonly around. If we are lucky we might even see Three-toed Woodpecker, Capercaillie and/or Willow Grouse. By mid-February or early March we start looking for first Pine Grosbeaks to return. Other regular guests at the feeding site are e.g. Bullfinch, Common and Arctic Redpolls, Greenfinch, Siskin and Brambling.
You learn how birds survive a harsh and long winter and how e.g. Three-toed Woodpecker gets its food in old-growth forests. In addition, you enjoy open-fire hot drink and local snacks in our kota while admiring birds or even squirrels at nearby feeders.
