When a Capper goes bad in the forest
One of the many highlights of our Finland and Norway birding tours is the chance to see a magnificent Capercaillie. Our expert local guide knew just the spot to look for one of these huge grouse.
We did not have to wait long before this beast of bird appeared
What a stunning sight, everyone was stunned and amazed by the views
Cameras clicked and we all soaked up this mega grouse
The Capper was in the mood to show off and displayed right in front of us
Alan crept a little closer
and Brian joined him for that special shot
Suddenly things changed in an instant and the Capper attacked!
The Capper charged Alan, who was quick to retreat
but the Capper was not giving up and gave chase!
Luckily the Capper decided that honour was restored and showed off again
But no, the Capper was not done, he then attacked the minibus!
We left this amazing bird still displaying in the forest, what an encounter!
Come and join us for the brilliant tour in 2014
