The blue flash, common kingfisher photographic hide.
Fascinating, elusive, and unpredictable, the common kingfisher (Alcedo atthis) is the true flash of the Italian wetlands.
If you also dream of photographing the elusive kingfisher, this experience is perfect for you.
We will go to one of the observation hides immersed in the unspoiled nature of the Ticino Valley Natural Park; here we will quietly wait and patiently watch for the passage of this elusive species, fully respecting its natural behavior.
The duration of the activity will vary depending on the kingfisher’s level of activity. The participant will decide how long to stay in the hide if they manage to capture the desired shots.
In any case, the experience will last a maximum of 7 hours.
The experience is open to photographers and nature observers alike.
