A group of friends just arrived for a three day birding in Hortobágy and an additional day in Zemplén Hills.

On our first day we had an action-packed start. We were concentrating on raptors and we managed to see 3 White-tailed Eagles, 5 Imperial Eagles, a Long-legged Buzzard, Hen Harriers, Goshawk and 2 Sakers.

Other goodies included Ferruginous Ducks, 14 Great Bustards, 7 Stone-curlews and 84 Dotterels.
