The photograph of the polar bear on the cliff was also taken in Svalbard, during a spring trip with @arcticwildlife_tours in 2023.

During my visit to Thomas Mørch (@m0rch ) in Hall During my visit to Thomas Mørch (@m0rch ) in Hallingdal, neither the weather nor the eagle were very cooperative.

Thick fog and an eagle that preferred to perch high in the treetops, watching from a distance instead of coming closer.

Despite the challenging conditions and limited photographic opportunities, it was still an enjoyable experience getting close to this magnificent bird.

The video was filmed through the fog using a Nikon Z9 and a Nikkor 180-400 TC lens.

I received a lovely message today that my picture I received a lovely message today that my picture of the arctic tern attacking the fox won 1st prize in the category "Birds and Animals" in the @biofoto and CEWE photo competition.

The picture was taken in Svalbard last summer on a 10-day photo tour with @arcticwildlife_tours on board MS Origo.

We were out with a Zodiac boat in the Krossfjord to photograph seals, when we became aware that the arctic terns were so active on land. The reason was an arctic fox that they tried to bully away from the eggs and cubs. The terns made several lunges at the fox, which eventually ran away.

The picture was taken from the Zodiac boat, with a low perspective, at 04.45 in the morning.

Taken with Nikon Z9 and Nikkor 400TC with built-in converter. The settings are 1/2500sec. at f/4 with ISO5600

Many thanks to @arctic_traveler @photojeanettics @wikstrom_photography , crew, and other participants for a fantastic trip.
