Abandoned Village of Tobseda, Barents sea coast, Arctic Russia. 7 June 2018

 

This stint species found the perfect breeding places in the abandoned villageof Tobseda. The breeding density was amazingly high with a Temmincks´ nest every 30 m. Exemplary you can see this stint on some old rusty garbage. However, in the lowland tundra in the sourrounding temmincks were much less abundant.
