Sicily
. Sicily is a wild, fascinating place, and, whilst birding is not easy, it
can offer some incredible surprises!
Sicily hosts the biggest Lanner population in Europe (100-120 pairs);
15-20 pairs of Bonelli`s Eagle,
Egyptian Vulture (a few, and declining); the most important Collared
Pratincole colony in Italy (Biviere di Gela); and is the most important
raptor-migration hotspot in the Southern Mediterranean. The only records of
Amur Falcon in the Western Palaearctic have been reported from the Stretto
di Messina, along with 20-30.000 Honey Buzzards, some individual Long-legged
and Steppe Buzzards, Pallid Harrier, Siberian Peregrine and the occasionally
Barbary Falcon. If you need more information about the anti-poaching camp,
please contact us. The Eastern Coast: (Foce del Simeto, Saline di Priolo,
Saline di Siracusa, Vendicari, Longarini) is a poorly known area, but really
is a vagrant trap for migrants crossing the Western Mediterranean towards
the Balkans. Isabelline Wheatear, Isabelline Shrike, Sociable Plover,
Caspian Gull, Great black-headed Gull can be seen here (but is, of course,
ia matter of luck) in May-June, this part of Sicily is also very scenic! On
the opposite side of Sicily, Riserva naturale dello Stagnone e saline di
Trapani and near Palermo, the Riserva dello Zingaro are two beautiful areas
well worth a visit.
