This book covers the coastal strip of Croatia, from as far north as Pag Island and as far inland as the Plitvice lakes. It’s perfect for anyone wishing to enjoy the touristic delights of Croatia and also find as many birds as possible.
Compared to other publications covering the same area, this one:
- Provides the most useful maps - so you can easily find your way to the best bits of wetland, mountain or woodland
- Includes GPS co-ordinates to help you find the right turnings, parking spaces or viewing points
- Highlights the best areas only - and summarises the key attraction in the first paragraph so you can easily decide whether to read on or bother to visit the site
- Has a map on the inside cover which serves as an index so you can easily find any site in the book
- Is light and portable (and cheap)
- Is updated in the free update pages on Gosney's website, giving details of what other birders have found at these sites
Dave Gosney writes:
‘‘Dubrovnik, Split, Plitvice, Krka, Biokovo... southern Croatia has so many fantastic places to visit, but what’s it like for birds? I really enjoyed birding at many of the sites in this book but some didn’t live up to expectations, so you need to know where to go. This book provides a clear, up-to-date, assessment of where the best birding is and tells you exactly where to find breeding birds such as Rock Partridge, Rock Nuthatch, Olive-tree Warbler, Black-headed Bunting, Audouin’s Gull, Sombre Tit, Calandra Lark, Yelkouan Shearwater and the best places for migrants such as terns, waders, pipits and Red-footed Falcons.”
