Hey,
i will go to Iceland with some friends this year. We planned to do the trip in the early july but unfortunately we have to go from 23.7. to 1.8.
Are there some birds I will miss because of the late time of our trip (Auks,
Gannets,...)?
My friends aren't realy interested in birds. This will probably be our
tour:
10 days Iceland
Reykjavik
Nationalpark Thinvellir – Gullfoss – Geysire
Thjorsardalur – Vik
Nationalpark Skaftafell
Gletscherlagune Jökulsarlon - Höfn - Ostfjorde
Egilsstadir - Myvatn
Dettifoss - Husavik - Akureyri
Akureyri - Skagafjord - Borgarfjord
Borgarfjord – Reykjavik
Are there some good spots on the road where we can have quick stops?
I don't want the group to drive hours just for some birds they didn't
want to see I hope there will be some good species on lake Myvatn.
Where will be the best chance to see Gyrfalcons? Will Snowy Owl be
possible?
all the best,
Gilbert
