Romania, 10 days
Romania should be high on the list of destinations for every birdwatcher. Here is why:
Danube Delta
The Danube Delta is the largest river delta in Europe and one of the best birding sites in the continent. There is no better place for those who would like to enjoy spectacular birdwatching with huge flocks of pelicans, waders, cormorants, reedbeds full of warblers, lakes and marshes full of ducks, herons, egrets and ibises. Woodpeckers, Hoopoe, Roller, Bee-eater, Golden Oriole are plentiful and it is an excellent place for raptors as well.
Dobrogea & Black Sea Coast
On the Black Sea Coast of Dobrogea sought after raptors fly overhead such as Levant Sparrowhawk, Booted Eagle, Long-legged Buzzard and in the forests, hills and plains nearby you find Pied Wheatear, Rock Thrush and Sombre Tit. The extensive wetlands along the sea provide habitat for rare resident species and thousands of migrating birds as well, including pelicans, Ruddy Shelduck and Paddyfield Warbler.
The Carpathian Mountains
The Carpathian Mountains provide a contrast and a good opportunity to discover exciting mountain species including Ural and Tengmalm's Owl, Wallcreeper, Alpine Swift, Ring Ouzel and Nutcracker. There is also a chance to see rare mammals such as Chamois and Brown Bear.
