An ornithological hike in Roya which will lead you to the discovery of sometimes rare birds such as the Boreal owl, the Tengmalm owl and the Chevechette owl...
The larch forests of the Roya Valley have been the heart of the Mercantour National Park for many years. This characteristic has favored a reasoned management of the area allowing the conservation of ecosystems.
This situation has favored the presence of rare birds such as the Boreal owl, the Tengmalm's owl and the Chevechette owl.
These two species roam the forest in search of food (mice and field mice), a partner, or a territory to defend.
Their song, different according to the seasons, is audible at a distance or, closer, after a small stroll at nightfall...
