By following the eastern road through the Zalgiriai forest and making some stops the area will show a good variety of nice birds.

Description

Following the road, making some stops and walking the smaller roads in to the Zalgiriai forest here and there will be rewarding, Vuga , Cvrčić potočar are singing together with the rest of the choir of other song birds. Through the area Orao kliktaš and occasionaly Crni orao can be seen.

The bridge gives a good view over the stream and surrounding forests, there are paths on both sides to follow. In the south east corner of the forest Pirgasta grmuša , Cvrčić potočar , Siva žuna , Veliki detlić, Srednji detlić and Crna žuna can be seen or heard.

I only visited this area in late May. So additional information is needed generally and for other periods. Please feel free to write in the comment section below and it will be added to the post.
