Observation details

Actually insane that we saw this bird. The main reason we made this massive detour to Äkäslompolo. Bird came in with Willow Tits and almost landed on our hands before providing insane looks on branches and sticks at point-blank range. Huge deal for us as this bird is mythical in America because it’s practically impossible to get them there at this point (if they’re even there anymore)
