Bird trip to Iceland (December 2014)

This gallery proposes a selection of images taken in winter 2014 during a very short trip to Iceland, which is a beautiful island with stunning nature and landscapes. I travelled there between 19-21 December 2014 to observe/photograph Icelandic birds and two Nearctic rarities. One of the aims of this winter trip was also to see and photograph Northern lights (Aurora borealis).
