Sweden Wildlife Photography

Sweden's vast northern forests and snow-blanketed landscapes offer a genuinely rewarding setting for wildlife photography, drawing raptors and boreal specialists into close, photographable range against a stark winter backdrop. Its combination of resident eagles and hardy forest birds makes it a compelling destination for photographers keen to capture species rarely encountered elsewhere in Europe.

Species NaturesLens Photographs in Sweden

NaturesLens runs its Northern Sweden's Eagles In Winter holiday around Kalvtrask, near Skellefteå, each March, when Golden Eagle and White-tailed Eagle are the star attractions. Alongside the eagles, NaturesLens photographs Northern Goshawk and Red Fox, as well as a range of smaller boreal species including Arctic Redpoll, Common Redpoll, Bohemian Waxwing, Eurasian Bullfinch, Pine Grosbeak, Siberian Jay, Siberian Tit, and Willow Tit. The March timing takes advantage of the region's winter conditions, when these species congregate and are more readily observed and photographed.
