Descrizione
The picturesque, mountainous west coast of Elba, surrounded by the Tyrrhenian Sea to the north, west and south, is not only a magnet for many resting birds on the spring and autumn migration. You can also find endemic breeding birds there, whose distribution is limited to a few islands or coastlines, such as Berta minore, Berta maggiore mediterranea, Gabbiano corso, Venturone corso and Magnanina sarda.
Above the coast there are many paths running parallel to the main road through the open, stony scrub, some of which are marked on the map. Breeding birds here are Pernice rossa, Rondone maggiore, Corvo imperiale, Passero solitario, Occhiocotto, Magnanina comune, Sterpazzolina di Moltoni, Fanello, Verzellino, Cardellino, Venturone corso, Zigolo nero and many more. Magnanina sarda can also be encountered, especially at higher altitudes. In the higher vegetated areas Usignolo, Pigliamosche and Fiorrancino occur.
Looking to the sea, you can see Berta maggiore mediterranea and Berta minore migrating and hunting off the coast, especially in the morning and evening hours. Gabbiano corso and Marangone dal ciuffo can be seen as well. In the winter months watch out for Sula .
