The Lynches' Tour of Norway and Finland
As an adjunct to Pat and Sherron Lynch's report on their Rockjumper tour of Norwy and Finland, photos of the birds they encountered on the trip are presented here.
The birds are arranged as the tour met them on its journey through the two countries. The photos of the birds were all taken by a fellow traveler, John Caddick, who kindly has allowed them to be published here.
Enjoy!
