Anyone been raptor watching in the Batumi area? That's in the SW part near the Black Sea coast. I'd be interested to get firsthand info on infrastructure and the like.

For starters, here is a web site: http://www.batumiraptorcount.org/projects

A quick search of the identification forum shows that BF member opisska has three recent threads on the identification of birds from that area. A year ago, buzzard 12 had three threads. And finally, a third thread shows johannesjansen as being a person with that area included in his signature. A few PMs should give you some info.

Dear Robert,

of course. It is one of the most exciting places in the world to experience raptor migration. We have many upcoming projects and possibilities to visit this year. For any type of birder: as a volunteer to help with the raptor count, a visitor who would like to enjoy this spectacle from a local guesthouse or if you are keen on combining a visit with seeing all Caucasus specialties. What kind of information are you most interested in?
