    Call of the Eurasian Hoopoe

    My first Hoopoe in the Kaiserstuhl area in Germany. You can hear them regularly in that area, and you even can see the Hoopoe in the distance. It was a long walk in the Kaiserstuhl area and almost without luck, until, finally one sat down on a post close to us calling. We were so lucky.

    Visiting Hoopoe, in Northern Ireland

    I was one of about 30 lucky people to see the hoopoe which arrived in Comber, last week. It stayed for about 4 days before heading off for summer in Southern Europe. He caused quite a stir as they are so rarely blown this far off course, making a few local papers.

    I need to see a hoopoe in Italy

    Hello, my family is making a trip to Italy in June/July. A few days each in Milan, Venice, Florence, Sorrento, and Rome. What would be my best bet for seeing a hoopoe? It doesn't have to be up-close nor photogenic (though both would be nice). I just need to see it! My family are not birders so...

    Breeding birds in Europe which follow national borders

    I recently looked that the maps of the splendid EBBA2 atlas, and distribution of many birds exactly follows national borders. Not necessary borders which follow some geographical barrier. Eagle Owl: present everywhere, practically 100% in Germany, Czechia, Slovakia, but stops at borders of...
