Norwegian Eagles & Winter Wildlife
Flatanger Mountains, Norway


February 20th to February 27th 2016

Together with Ole Martin Dahle of Norway Nature, we are offering this unique winter workshop in Norway, photographing the spectacular Norwegian wildlife, including the famous Flatanger Sea Eagles & Golden Eagles in their wild, natural enviroment. Ole Martins' years of hard work and experience have made him one of the best wildlife guides in the world.

Together with myself; a full time professional photographer & teacher, we offer you unparalleled photographic opportunities, first-rate facilities, technical help & advice, good company and exceptional value for money.

Six days of solid photography featuring these apex predators of the bird world in the spectacular
Flatanger region of Norways Nord Trondelag.

You will also have the opportunity to photograph at very close quarters Wolf, Arctic Fox &
Lynx.

The first photography day will be spent in the Eagle Hide up in the mountains at Smalielva. This is the
original hide that our guide, Ole Martin Dahle, built and has been the scene of many award-winning images
over the years.


It has room for 5 photographers, heaters if necessary, toilet facilities and does NOT require the use of
tripods; like all the other hides it has fixed mounting points for a gimbal or ball head.


Globally renowned as one of the best hides for photographing the very large Golden Eagles present in this
area of Norway, it can also produce awesome images of White-tailed Eagle if the weather is very cold.

Other birds such as Jay, Hooded Crow and the magnificent Raven are always in the area, and will add an
element of variety to your images.


From Monday onwards you will have the option to try the new Eagle hide (which has space for 4photographers) or the Goshawk Hide (space for a maximum of 3 photographers) should you so wish.
Those wishing to use the main Eagle hide will still be able to do so, but everyone will have at least 1 session in the Goshawk hide.


One day in mid-tour we will have a session (weather permitting) photographing White-tailed Eagles from
the boat that we usually use during our summer tours. This day will provide close up opportunities for
“Eagle in Flight” and “Diving Eagle” images that are difficult to obtain anywhere else.


It must be stressed that these winter boat sessions only occur when conditions are SAFE. Wind, sea swell
and ice in the water are the limiting factors. Floatation suits and suitable footwear are provided.


On the Wednesday of the tour we will drive some distance north to a wildlife park at Namsskogan where we
will have sole access INSIDE the compounds. Here we will have the opportunity to spend time gathering
close-up images of Lynx and Arctic Fox, Red Fox, Wolf and Wolverine.

And if the Viking Gods are truly smiling on us, the nights may give us the opportunity to photograph the spectacular Northern Lights or Aurora Borealis.
