Finland, May 2008
Tengmalm's Owl (female)
Tengmalm's Owl - one of the hardest owls to see in Europe - we saw this inquisitive specimen peering out of its nesting hole high in a pine alongside a busy road in the Hauho region of southern Finland - only 4 hours before our return flight was due to take off...! Many thanks to 'Pekka 2' for taking time out to guide us to this one.
