FOK3 expedition to Lake Constance, 2024
The original plan was to start in Stein am Rhein, but there were few migrant birds there, so we stuck to Triboltingen and Altnau. I should have taken my huge telephoto lens, as the birds were often far away near the German shore, where there were no human observers to disturb them. Also we didn't walk around, so the weight wouldn't have been a problem. That explains the poor pictures of interesting birds! (More infos to what we learned in the German version of this page.)
