A PASSION FOR RAPTORS
-researcher, photographer, bird artist Dick Forsman

"Maybe the power and the freedom of the raptors appeal to one's own desire for freedom or perhaps they are just so perfect in their aesthetic character."

These are the sentiments of the Swedish-speaking Finn Dick Forsman (born in 1953), who is maybe the best-known researcher of the raptors in Europe.

He has studied, photographed and painted birds assiduously and passionately since his youth.

Many shots of impressive bird species in Finland

This full-length portrait and nature documentary is full of fabulous shots of birds and nature, as well as reflections on how to see nature in way that is fresh and personal. The programme can be used for learning about bird species at any stage of the hobby.

There are many shots of impressive bird species in Finland, including an episode of the pine grosbeaks' migration in Southern Finland at the time the programme was filmed.
