Birds in the backyard 2016
Planning Tuscany
We will stay for 7 days in Artimino, Tuscany. One day is fully used by attending a cooking course in the hotel’s kitchen and doing a wine tasting session in Artimino. Driving from Levanto to Artimino allows us to have a short visit in Carrara. From Artimino we need to plan our other daily tours […]
White-tailed Eagle
Went to an area near to my hometown where White-tailed eagles were seen recently. Right when I arrived one eagle was perching on a tree. He flew off for a while but came back and I was lucky that I grabbed that situation. Using the brand-new D500 with the Nikkor 500 plus TC-14 for all […]

Besides eagle shooting, the booked session also entailed evening boat rides to have […]
