september is almost here and I have realized that
I haven't been anywhere outside Finland this summer - for some reason or another. while waiting for the chance to travel somewhere - I have thought about
the places I would like to visit the most and have come up with four different ones not too far from here.
my travel wishlist:
Iceland - Gyrfalcon
Scotland - Golden Eagle
Faroe Islands - Oystercatcher
Cornwall - Chough
I had never been to any of those places before - except for a short visit to
Edinburgh many years ago - during which I haven't seen the rest of Scotland though. I hope to be able to travel there soon!
P.S. the national birds of those places can be found in Finland too.
P.P.S. the pictures of the birds are from my Pohjolan Lintukirja and the photographs are from Flickr Commons.
My Aunt and Uncle visited the Faroe Islands and they said that it's a "must see"!!!
ReplyDeleteI hope you get to visit all these wonderful places, dear P! :*
I hope so too! ;-) I have missed traveling this summer!
Deletei vote for faroe islands as well! never been there but i m sure it will be worth it!
ReplyDeleteyes! it must be such an amazing and peculiar place there! :-)
DeleteI hope you'll be able to see all the places you love Polly...
ReplyDeletethank you! ♥ am I too ambitious? at least they're all not that far from here! ;-)
DeleteChe cose tenere :) <3
ReplyDeleteMa scegli anche un uccellino di qui e vieni a trovarmi dai! :)
sai che pare che il national bird per l'Italia sia il piccione? mentre il national animal il lupo italiano! :-) ♥
DeleteWhat a sweet list and one I completely agree with! It's so lovely to know that someone else out there loves visiting places to see birds. The main thing I did in the Faroe Islands was visit the Vestmanna Bird cliffs and it was beyond inspiring. You are so close to those lovely places so you will certainly go :)
ReplyDeletethose Vestmanna Bird cliffs sound like an amazing place to visit! I won't miss them when I finally visit the Faroe Islands! :-)
