Working in Tiilikka National Park

I've been working now with bird countings in Tiilikka National Park in Rautavaara. Here are some poor quality cell phone photos from my working area.


Tiilikanjoki


Venäjänhiekka


Lähdesuo


Trees fallen by North American Beaver (Castor canadensis).
This species has been introduced in Finland in 1937 and now it's
rather common and widespread in the whole country.
