There don't seem to be too many reports from this area in the winter so here's an account of a long weekend at the end of February this year. Quite wordy but plenty of photos.

Highlights were at least 7 Spotted Eagles, an early Lesser Spotted Eagle, great views of Eagle Owl, 6 species of woodpecker, Moustached Warbler, Sombre Tit, masses of Dalmatian Pelicans and Pygmy Cormorants, swarms of Hawfinches, Wild Cat, European Free-tailed Bats, Nettle-tree Butterfly and signs of Brown Bear. 117 species of bird seen. Not bad for 72 hours in February.
Photos: Pygmy Cormorant, Woodlark, Large Tortoiseshell, Nettle-tree, Black Stork. More on the blog.
