Danube Delta
Birds
Those above plus purple, squacco and night herons, great white and little egrets, spoonbill, pygmy cormorant, red-crested pochard, red-backed and lesser grey shrikes, penduline and bearded tits, icterine warbler and, with luck and perseverance, paddyfield warbler.
Other wildlife
This is, primarily, a birdwatching holiday, but the flowers in Dobrogea are a fascinating mix of eastern and northern European and Mediterranean species, many of which lack English names. Trees include Caucasian and manna ashes, Cornelian cherry, oriental hornbeam and silver lime. Terrapins, frogs and butterflies add interest, and muskrat is a possibility in the delta.
