Finland and Norway 2013 - the return journey

We left Varanger and the Arctic Ocean behind and headed back south. We made a few birding stops along the way and added Shorelark, prob. Arctic Redpoll, Ptarmigan and Goshawk to our trip lists. We also had great views of Ural Owl back near Oulu. A large flock of Crossbills proved frustrating as the birds never 'settled' to enable us to pick out any Parrots among them.
