Beschrijving

The island Gökçeada (Imbros) is a nice touristic location but also offers rich bird diversity in a small area. It is good place to observe birds which prefer different habitats. Flamingo, Zomertortel and Rüppells Grasmus are some species that are possible to observe in the island. At the same time, on the coasts and during the ferry trip to the island Scopoli's Pijlstormvogel is the one of the most attractive species to observe.
