Beschrijving
Cismigiu Garden in Bucharest is a nice spot for birdwatching while visiting the city. The garden features a variety of mature trees and plants that attract different bird species. Varying with the change of seasons, birdwatchers can typically spot species like Merel, Zwartkop, Tjiftjaf, Vink, Vuurgoudhaan, Goudhaan, Taigaboomkruiper, Bonte Vliegenvanger and Roodborst. Airborne birds like swallows and swifts also frequently fly overhead. Larger birds such as herons and egrets occasionally come to the perimeter lake and grassy areas.
For a few years in a row, Cismigiu Gardens have been the nesting site for a pair of Balkansperwer. Ocasionally, birds of prey circle around above the park and at night, during the summer, Steenuil and Dwergooruil can be heard and seen. Come winter, the lake is drained to prevent further degradation to the lake's alimentation system and conveniently make place for a skating ring, so don't expect many water species other than a few gulls, a few mallards and some wagtails on the bottom of the lake.
The park's well-established trees, shrubs, and plantings make it a peaceful oasis within the capital. While the vegetation greatly degraded due to poor administration, various woodland and aquatic plants still provide shelter, nesting areas, and food sources that draw more than 70 bird species. While it isn't one of Bucharest's premier birdwatching destinations, if anything, Cismigiu offers a convenient location to observe common songbirds and glimpse rarer visitors with just binoculars or a basic camera lens. Particularly for travelers on a short stay in Bucharest, the garden offers a low-effort chance to enjoy nature and birds without having to travel far from the city center. Birders working their way through Romania may find it worthwhile to spend 30 minutes - 1 hour scanning the treetops and skies of Cismigiu.

Click on a P in the map for directions. Since it is a quite small area, the park can be enjoyed on foot, to take a bike would be overkill.
