Hi
I will be in Nice for a week in early october on a city holiday with wife and small baby. We are visiting also Cannes and Monaco but not able to go to good birding places further away like Camarque or Crau. Any tips for easy accessible birding places around Nice? I have read that Var river right next to airport is good. Is it possible to see birds from the airport side of the river also?
I would be interested to see some species I'm missing, so any advice for good places to spot following birds are appreciated:
-yelkouan shearwater
-indian silverbill
-lovebirds (where exactly in St.Jean Cap Ferrat?)
-crag martin (Var?)
-gull-billed tern
-citril finch
-cirl bunting
-squacco heron
-booted eagle
Regards
