Former MKNHS member Jeff Blincow first visited Finnmark in 1980 primarily to see the birdlife. He now spends each summer recording wildlife in Norway. Finnmark is the northern part of Norway with Finland to the south and Russia to the east. Most of the area where he records wildlife is either classic alpine or arctic tundra habitats. These are seriously harsh conditions for plants and animals, and the talk focused on these true survivors, drawing on his experiences from general wildlife recording and specific projects involving species such as Slavonian Grebe, Lesser White-fronted Goose and Ruff.
