Birds of the Boreal - From the Mesches to Gias Taupé
Castérino
06430 Tende
France
The larch forests of the Roya Valley have been the heart of the Mercantour National Park for many years. This situation has favored the presence of rare birds such as the Boreal Owl, the Tengmalm's Owl and the Little Owl, which we propose to observe.
Luca is a passionate ornithologist. The boreal owl, the Tengmalm's owl and the little owl roam the forest in search of food (mice and field mice), of a partner, or of a territory to defend. Their song, different according to the season, can be heard from a distance or, closer, after a short walk at nightfall...
