Birdingplaces is made by and for birders. Together we are creating a huge free site guide for birding in Europe. More than 4000 birdingplaces are already posted on www.birdingplaces.eu and growing every day. We thank all our users who have shared these great hotspots! But the map of Europe is still only partly filled and many great areas are not listed yet. To enrich the map with other fine birding areas we start a nice new promotion with the support of Leica.
