Before my trip to Austria that bridged January and February, I had never really had that country high on my list of places I wanted to go. What I knew of Austria was very little: The Sound of Music, mountains and skiing, Vienna, Hitler’s birthplace, Krampus, good beer, and often confused with Australia. But when Swarovski Optik reaches out and offers a trip to Austria you take it even if it is in the depths of winter. Trips Austria Europe Innsbruck

Birding Alps Austria TirolSo, I have now been living in the Alps for about 4 years. And I cannot claim that it was easy at first. I grew up in South Africa where my garden list was over 200. I then lived in Central America where there were more bird species than my bird books (and my competence) could hope to identify. The Tirolean Alps are – well – rather barren by comparison. But then again, those are some pretty hard acts to follow.

Visiting the continent after the end of most of the autumn migration meant that the number of bird species I could see in northern France, Switzerland, southern Germany, and Austria was much reduced. Not only was the setting less exotic-friendly than an urban park, this was only the third registry for this species in Austria on eBird. As I mentioned last week, my wife, son, and daughter-in-law spent much of the month of October in Europe.

Corey had five life birds this on Saturday in Austria and Lichtenstein but easily the best was a very cooperative Wallcreeper which was working the walls of an Austrian castle. Another Super Bowl has passed and, as predicted , the feathered team fell short. Birds are amazing for a host of reasons, but bringing luck to sports teams may not be their strong suit.

A little over a month ago I was hiking up a mountain path outside of Innsbruck, Austria, with birders from around the world. What Swarovski brought us to Austria, and had us hike up a mountain to see, was the BTX, a binocular eyepiece that allows you to stare through a spotting scope all day long without experiencing eyestrain or, really, any major discomfort. This revelation brings us back to when Dale was done with his presentation on that mountainside in Austria.

Austria also so honors Hirundo rustica though that honor is watered down a bit by the national animal of Austria, which is the Golden Eagle. The national bird of Estonia is the Barn Swallow Hirundo rustica. Of course, in Estonia the bird is not called Barn Swallow.

This last weekend I was in eastern Austria in the state of Burgenland – just a mile from the Hungarian border – where a small population of Great Bustards persists. The Great Bustard ( Otis tarda ) is one of the largest flying birds on the planet, topped only by the Kori Bustard ( Ardeotis kori ) and, possibly in some cases, by the Mute Swan ( Cygnus olor ). But what is even more spectacular than the sheer size of this bird, is its absolutely crazy lekking display.

The Italian Sparrow is not entirely confined to Italy but – not surprisingly – also occurs in neighbouring areas of Austria and Switzerland. There are currently no German records of the species, in spite of it occurring in Austria less than 35 km south of the German border. Bird blogging in May always gives me the creeps. This ridiculous focus of the Birding Internet on North American wood-warblers is boring on a quiet day and highly annoying during peak migration.
