Goshawk

Seeing a goshawk up close with its beautiful coverage
and sharp gaze is an experience beyond the ordinary

Goshawk

In northern Gästrikland there is a beautiful forest glade where many bird and animal species thrive.
During the winter, the water station is often visited by goshawks, but many other animals also come to renovate their food stores.

You dont have to be a photographer to enjoy the  wildlife that comes really close.

Some conservation work has been placed within the location such as bird boxes, nest protection and habitat enhancements.

The area is a private land with no traffic which guarantees that wildlife is not disturbed.
