Follow on Google News | New Birdlife & Wildlife Voyages Around Spitsbergen with Robert Brown OBE 12 years RSPB Director (NI)Robert Brown OBE will be embarking on an exciting new expert led Birdlife & Wildlife Voyage Around Spitsbergen this July to provide an insight into the range of bid species that can sought out in the incredible Arctic Wilderness.
July is an excellent month to observe Spitsbergen’ This voyage will go in search of some of the best locations from which to observe and photograph birdlife, including the towering cliffs of Alkefjellet in the Hinlopen Straits, where hundreds of thousands of Brunnich’s Guillemots can be sighted. Another interesting location includes Fugelsangen, where Little Auks congregate in their thousands. Ptarmigans are the only year round birdlife residents of Spitsbergen. Like the Arctic Fox, these birds change from pure white to mottled brown and white during the summer. Arctic foxes are highly reliant on plentiful summer birdlife and are often see loitering beneath bird cliffs, ready to pick off fledglings that fall from their nests. Other birdlife you can hope to see in July are puffins, Eider ducks, red phalaropes and ivory gulls – all set to the dramatic backdrop of sea ice, calving glaciers, deep fjords, snow-capped mountains and sheer cliffs.
