Area: Western Pomerania, North-West Poland Introduction: Eagles have been following fishermen boats in this area for many years so they are used to them now. They hunt close to boats and can be easily photographed at a decent distance. They are also attracted by fish thrown by the fishermen from the boats and they can even recognize the right boats. We will go together on four 3h boat-trips. We can expect ca. 3 to 12 (on average) eagle attacks on each trip and even more sightings. The area is very rich in WT Eagles. Other possible species on the trip are: gulls, cormorants, ducks, sometimes bearded tits. We will photograph eagles in flight so it is good to have appropriate equipment (see below) and to have some experience in action shots. Number of participants: min 3, max 8 Rough itinerary: Day 1 14.30 - arrival at the Szczecin airport 15.30 - arrival at the accommodation, lunch photowalk, car trip in the area dinner Day 2, Day 3 - 2 boat trips each day Day 4 - morning landscape trip and departure breakfast photowalk, car trip in the area 11.30 - departure to the Szczecin airport 13.00 - at the Szczecin airport, flight Accommodation and meals: comfortable guesthouse near Szczecin, twin rooms all with bathrooms, limited number of single rooms Prices: 6-8 participants - 900 Euro/person only 5 participants - 1050 Euro/person only 4 participants - 1100 Euro/person only 3 participants - 1400 Euro/person (250 Euro deposit) single room supplement: 40-60 Euro/person/trip included: guiding, max 4 boat trips, accommodation and meals (full board, twin rooms) in a guesthouse, local transport, airport transfer from/to Szczecin airport not included:personal insurance, flight tickets, all items of personal nature, alcoholic drinks, optional activities Recommended equipment: - lens at least 300 mm (DX); 400-500 mm full frame is best (longer can sometimes be to close) but zoom is optimal - tripod not necessary for boat shooting - rain protection for yourself and camera gear; you must be prepared for rain and splashing water - warm winter clothes (incl. hat and gloves) esp. for autumn/winter/spring shooting; it can be really cold when it is windy Possible inconveniences: If you have problems with seasickness please be prepared for that. The boat is pretty stable but some rocking may occur. We will be exploring a big river mouth NOT open sea. Important note The workshop is very weather-dependent because if there are strong winds and heavy rains it can be impossible to make a boat trip. In such a situation we can make alternative photo excursions on land in the area.
