Description
Dilijan City Park is situated between deciduous forest and the artificial riverbed of the Agstev river. Inside the park conifers, deciduous trees, bushes and lawns alternate. There is also a small pond inside the park.
You can find forest species like Obični kos, Carić, Kratkokljuni puzić, tits and woodpeckers all year round. Conifere trees are a good place for wintering Kraljić. Non-freezing river attracts Vodenkos in winter and Vodomar, Potočna pliska and Svilorepi cvrčić in summer.
In spring and summer flycatchers nest here, like Istočna šarena muharica or Mala muharica. During spring and autumn migration you can observe flocks of Siva čaplja and encounter uncommon species like Mali gnjurac, Čaplja govedarka and even Plamenac.
