Hoopoe Photography

Photography holidays in Hungary

The Hoopoe's fanned crest, cinnamon plumage and unmistakable silhouette make it one of the more rewarding subjects a photographer can hope to work with, and NaturesLens builds real opportunities to capture it well into its Hungarian hide-based holidays. Working from purpose-built hides at close range gives photographers the chance to observe natural behaviour and compose considered images without disturbing the bird, rather than settling for distant, hurried shots.

Where NaturesLens Photographs the Hoopoe

NaturesLens runs its Hoopoe photography holidays in Hungary, on the Wildlife Photography Hides of Hungary trip, making use of Bence Máté's hides and the surrounding area around Pusztaszer. These holidays are typically scheduled for June, when NaturesLens visits the region to give guests dedicated time in the hides for photographing the species.
