Sardinia in early October (1 Viewer)

Hello everybody,

in a few days I will go to Sardinia for holidays and I am looking for tips referring to nice birdwatching spots and places where it might be possible to find special species like for example eleonora's falcon, little bustard, barbary partridge, marmora's warbler and others.

I will stay in Cala Ganone at the east coast and I know that most birding-hotspots are in other regions of the island, but it will be possibe to visit other places by car.

Unfortunately I found the book "Where to Watch Birds in Sardinia" too late and there is no E-book-version. For sure it could have been a great help.

And I have another question: Is bird hunting popular in Sardinia?

I appreciate all tips, comments and information.

Greetings,

Eleonora's Falcon are best seen on the island off the SW coast - San Pietro or Carloforte. The ferry is from Portovesme, excellent accommodation at Hotel Paola if they are still open. Don't delay, I think the birds will soon be leaving.
Trapping is still a problem in Sardinia but the situation is getting better year by year.

Let me know if you want more.
Best wishes,
