Grebes

Mostly Grebes, one Great Cormorant and one Black-headed Gull. There are photos of two red listet birds here: the Horned Grebe, male and the Smew, female. The horned grebe is, in my opinion, one of the most beautiful birds in Norway.

White tailed eagle and Osprey

White-tailed eagles are the biggest bird in Norway. It is even bigger than the golden eagle. The ospreys are nesting in Norway from April to September, and some of them close to where I live.
