Winter Birdwatching Tour "Red-breasted Geese"

As pearls on a necklace, the wetlands in Eastern Bulgaria trace the coastal regions of the country, forming a network of hyperhaline shallow lagoons, large lakes and dam-lakes, river mouths and flooded meadows. These are the best places for birdwatching in winter, when huge numbers of waterfowl gather here to spend the worst time of the year. The view of the massive flocks of thousands of gees taking off early in the morning from the wetlands is so spectacular, that can easily warm the birder’s heart even when the outside temperature is freezing.
The main target of a winter tour include: thousands of Red-breasted Geese (being no doubt the highlight of the tour, numbering on average between 10000 and 50000), tens of thousands of White-fronts and single Lesser White-fronted Geese among them; Dalmatian Pelicans; Pygmy Cormorants, White-headed Ducks and a great variety of grebes, herons and egrets, swans, dabbling and diving ducks, gulls, waders and exciting sightings of rare raptors and passerines.
