This book will help birdwatchers find many of Finland’s most exciting species such as Red-flanked Bluetail and Blyth’s Reed Warbler

Dave Gosney writes:

‘This is like an updated version of my previous book Finding Birds in Finland which has been much sought after despite being out of print for many years. It describes all the most exciting birding places in Finland south of the Arctic Circle from Helsinki to Kuusamo - the areas further north are included in Finding Birds in Lapland. Many of Finland’s birds, especially the owls, move around from year to year so it’s hard to give specific sites but this book gives really detailed directions for how to find many of the other Finnish specialities’
