Beschreibung
The volcanic plateau is dominated by the Calimani caldera and the abundance of Swiss stone pine and juniper trees. The Călimani National Park (Romanian: Parcul Naţional Călimani) is a protected area situated at Northern side of Eastern Carpathians. Due to the physico-geographical, floristic and landscape peculiarities, ornitofauna is diverse.
In the alpine emptiness, due to the abundant fruiting of cranberry and merisor, species are attracted from the spruce forest. Birds you can see here include Bergpieper, Alpenbraunelle, Hausrotschwanz, Kolkrabe, Turmfalke and Steinschmätzer. In the more forested areas you can encounter birds like Ringdrossel and Baumpieper. In flight, raptors can be observed: for example Kornweihe, Wanderfalke, Habicht, Schreiadler. And of course the Auerhuhn should be mentioned.
