About me

My name is Almir Hukic and I'm a wildlife photographer from Tuzla in Bosnia and Herzegovina. I have enormous respect for all the big birds and birds of prey, especially owls. My portfolio is dominated by the long-eared owl with which I regularly spend my winters every year in the northern Bosnia and Herzegovina. Due to their traits, I consider long-eared owls mythical birds, ones which have an incalculable importance for man, the community, and the entire Bosnia and Herzegovina. I am an author of two wildlife photomonographs tittled- "Urban lady- the phenomenon of the long-eared owl wintering grounds in the cities of northern Bosnia and Herzegovina" and the second one "Birds of Modrac", as well as the author of the photography exhibit The Long-Eared Owl at Our Wintering Grounds which took place during the 2018 Ornithofestival in Trebinje, 2019 in Sarajevo and 2021 in Tuzla. There are 350 species of birds registered in Bosnia and Herzegovina, and I have only scratched the surface. My lifelong mission is to record them all with my camera lens and eternalize them within a rich collection of photographs, as an homage of sorts to the unique beauty of Bosnia and Herzegovina.
