At Jon’s request I try to make my first post with a brief report of some exciting mammals seen accidentally on birding trip.

How awesome!
I will incidentally be in Stepantsminda/Kazbegi in just a few weeks for 1-2 nights.
I checked the IUCN distribution map for Eurasian Lynx, but it doesn’t show them as present in this area, so this is completely useful information for me! I will try to do a little spotlighting if my gf will let me 🙂
Cheers, and thank you for sharing!

If you find one in a single night Tomer I am going to have to kill you….I will officially be the only person left in the universe who has not seen a Eurasian lynx.
I need to start joining birding groups that keep accidently bumping into them……on second thoughts!
Correction: the only person left in the universe other than me 🙁
Ha. It’s just a matter of luck 🙂
But if you really want to see one, then I imagine Estonia should be on your list.
Cheers,
Tomer
Thanks Tomer, but I have been to Estonia on several occasions, as well as almost every other lynx territory in Europe and beyond.
It definitely is just a question of luck and I have been unlucky now for more than 25 years!
Good luck to you in any case and let me know how you get on.
Cheers
Jason
