    [description] => 
We are all familiar with the abundance of birds that return each summer to breed within the wetlands of Romania’s beautiful Danube Delta but, as the days shorten and the weather cools, many of these species head south to warmer climes to be replaced by an equally spectacular number and variety of wintering birds. Largely uninhabited, with the exception of a few fishing and farming villages, the Delta has an ethereal beauty in the winter. Corridors of willow and poplar trees stand frail and naked, exposed to hard frosts and snow; reedbeds rustle in a chilly wind and sandy islands support forests and the occasional small village, some of which are still constructed of traditional reed and wood. This is a peaceful place, disturbed only by the incessant babble of ducks and the distant honking of thousands of geese from out across the plains. Tens of thousands of Russian White-fronted Geese and ‘Eastern’ Greylag Geese return here each winter to take advantage of the rich feeding in the wheat fields and marshes around the edge of the Delta. Within these large gatherings of geese, however, can be found flocks of Romania’s star wintering bird, the beautiful, delicate and increasingly rare Red-breasted Goose.
December is one of best months to go in search of the Red-breasted Geese flocks. At this time of year all of the birds have arrived into the Delta from their breeding grounds on the Russian steppe, but the weather has not hardened sufficiently to tempt them to move further south into the less accessible wetlands of Bulgaria. These beautiful birds add a splash of festive colour to Romania’s frosty winter landscape and will be the undoubted highlight of this exciting Christmas tour. The geese, however, are only one facet of this yuletide break for the supporting cast of raptors, waders, woodpeckers and other wintering species will also keep us entertained during daylight hours, whilst in the evenings there are the Christmas festivities themselves to enjoy ... Romanian style, of course!

Tell me about Romania …
Romania is at the crossroads of central and south-eastern Europe. Since the 1989 revolution Romania has undergone major political and economic reforms. It became a member of the EU in 2007. Situated on the western shore of the Black Sea, with the Ukraine on its northern borders, Romania has a wide variety of habitats, including the Danube basin’s extensive wetlands, the Carpathian Mountains, evergreen forests of the north-west and rolling plains of the east.

The Danube Delta is the second largest and best preserved delta in Europe. The Carpathian Mountains dominate the centre of the country, and Romania has one of the largest areas of undisturbed forest in Europe.

                    [description] => 
A wetland larger than the Coto Doñana and Camargue combined, the vast delta of the mighty Danube River is disturbed only by the huge numbers of birds that live there. Corridors of willow and poplar stand tall, edging huge reedbeds, countless shallow lakes and a maze of freshwater channels. Sandy islands dot the delta, the larger of which support patches of forest – and the occasional small fishing village – whilst to the south the wetlands give way to the rolling steppes of Dobrogea and the large saline lagoons that edge the Black Sea.  
An incredible abundance of birds breed in the Danube Delta each summer including over 4,000 pairs of Cormorants and 3,000 pairs of Night Herons. A large percentage of the European population of Great Egrets, Pygmy Cormorants, and Dalmatian and White Pelicans nest here too, alongside good numbers of grebes, ducks, terns, geese and five or more pairs of White-tailed Eagles; birdwatchers will be in their element! As the days shorten and the weather cools, many of the summer migrants are replaced by an equally spectacular number and variety of wintering birds. Tens of thousands of Russian White-fronted Geese and ‘Eastern’ Greylag Geese arrive, taking advantage of rich foraging in the wheat fields and marshes around the delta’s edge. Within these large gatherings of geese, flocks of the beautiful, delicate and increasingly rare Red-breasted Goose can be found. The geese, however, are only one facet of the winter season, and the supporting cast of raptors, waders, woodpeckers and other species is also sure to delight.

We are all familiar with the abundance of birds that return each summer to breed within the wetlands of Romania’s beautiful Danube Delta but, as the days shorten and the weather cools, many of these species head south to warmer climes to be replaced by an equally spectacular number and variety of wintering birds. Largely uninhabited, with the exception of a few fishing and farming villages, the Delta has an ethereal beauty in the winter. Corridors of willow and poplar trees stand frail and naked, exposed to hard frosts and snow; reedbeds rustle in a chilly wind and sandy islands support forests and the occasional small village, some of which are still constructed of traditional reed and wood. This is a peaceful place, disturbed only by the incessant babble of ducks and the distant honking of thousands of geese from out across the plains. Tens of thousands of Russian White-fronted Geese and ‘Eastern’ Greylag Geese return here each winter to take advantage of the rich feeding in the wheat fields and marshes around the edge of the Delta. Within these large gatherings of geese, however, can be found flocks of Romania’s star wintering bird, the beautiful, delicate and increasingly rare Red-breasted Goose. 
December is one of best months to go in search of the Red-breasted Geese flocks. At this time of year all of the birds have arrived into the Delta from their breeding grounds on the Russian steppe, but the weather has not hardened sufficiently to tempt them to move further south into the less accessible wetlands of Bulgaria. These beautiful birds add a splash of festive colour to Romania’s frosty winter landscape and will be the undoubted highlight of this exciting Christmas tour. The geese, however, are only one facet of this yuletide break for the supporting cast of raptors, waders, woodpeckers and other wintering species will also keep us entertained during daylight hours, whilst in the evenings there are the Christmas festivities themselves to enjoy ... Romanian style, of course. Who knows, we may even experience that ‘white Christmas’ we have all been dreaming about for years! 

Our holiday starts, however, with a flight into Bucharest, the capital of Romania through which the River Danube flows. After spending one night nearby, we will drive east and base ourselves for the next two nights in Tulcea which sits at the western edge of the Danube Delta, at the point where the mighty river suddenly splits and fans out to create the maze of waterways, lagoons, reedbeds and islands of this internationally important biosphere reserve and UNESCO World Heritage Site. Since the geese tend to wander and do not always favour the same areas from year to year, we will keep the programme for the following days flexible to take account of this and other variables, such as weather, recent sightings and the advice of our local guides. Over the past few winters, however, many of the Redbreasted Geese have favoured the fields and wetlands around Enisala and Murighiol to the south-east of Tulcea and so we are very likely to spend time exploring this rich area. In addition to an abundance of the wintering ducks common in the UK, we will be looking out for other less familiar waterbirds such as Red-crested Pochard, Pygmy Cormorant and both White and Dalmatian Pelicans. Wintering raptors are particularly well represented in this region — especially favouring the nearby Babadag Plateau and Dobrogea Steppe — and we should be on the lookout for Rough-legged and Longlegged Buzzards, White-tailed Eagle, Hen and Marsh Harriers, Peregrine and Merlin during our time here. 
Next, we move south to end our tour with two nights in a simple, but comfortable, hotel near Constanta from where we explore Lake Techirghiol — often favoured by large flocks of Black-necked Grebes and the occasional White-headed Duck — and other wetlands along the Black Sea coast. En route we will look for more mixed geese flocks around Istria, Vadu and Lake Sinoe and search for a few of the smaller passerines and woodpeckers that remain here for the winter, including Black, Middle Spotted and Grey-headed Woodpeckers, Sombre Tit, Hawfinch and Calandra Lark. For those of the group interested in a challenge there will be plenty of gulls to scan through, and hopefully a few interesting species to find including Caspian Gull, Little Gull and perhaps even a Pallas’ Gull. 
Our festive tour to Romania’s Danube Delta ends back in Bucharest from where you can either extend your stay with a couple of nights in this interesting and historic city or return home.

                                    [introduction] => Tulcea sits at the western edge of the Danube Delta, at the point where the mighty river suddenly splits and fans out to create the maze of waterways, lagoons, reedbeds and islands of this internationally important biosphere reserve. Situated within walking distance of the town centre, the small and welcoming Ibis Guesthouse is an excellent option for those exploring the Delta. Meals are prepared on site and are both hearty and delicious. Rooms are clean and comfortable and offer air conditioning. There is also an attractive, plant-filled, seating area from which to discuss the days’ wildlife highlights, and the owners are very friendly.

                                    [introduction] => Situated in the Piatra Craiului National Park between Bucegi and Piatra Mountains, the Mosorel Guesthouse commands the most breathtaking setting with far-reaching views. Surrounded by spectacular mountains, it is often possible to spot agile Chamois on the nearby rock faces, and even the occasional Brown Bear ambling across the slopes. A network of hiking trails criss-cross the surrounding area, and the friendly owners will be more than happy to provide advice on the best routes, as well as sharing their knowledge of the local wildlife. Rooms are situated within the main building, as well as in a number of separate cabins, and are clean, spacious and comfortable, all with en suite facilities. Delicious home cooked meals are of a traditional Romanian style and are all freshly prepared with locally-sourced ingredients.

                                    [introduction] => Situated within an extensive tract of pristine forest above Pecineagu Lake, with breathtaking views of Făgăraș and Lezer-Păpușa Mountains, the Bunea Wilderness Cabin offers an unforgettable opportunity to leave civilisation behind and experience the wild Carpathians. The cabin was constructed by ‘Foundation Conservation Carpathia’, and is part of the largest private conservation project in Europe. The surrounding forests are home to Wolves and Eurasian Lynx, as well as European Brown Bear, and can be explored on foot with an expert guide via a network of trails to suit every ability, or viewed from the comfort of the hide. Evening meals are prepared with local, organic ingredients and are enjoyed by candlelight with a selection of excellent Romanian wines. The accommodation itself is rustic, but very comfortable nevertheless and comprises three cosy bedrooms (one double and two with bunk beds) a fully-equipped kitchen, bathroom with solar shower, rustic fireplace for cooler evenings and, most importantly, large windows overlooking the mountains and an excellent collection of field guides! There is also a telescope for guests to enjoy the spectacular, unpolluted night skies. There is no electricity at Bunea, but this only adds to its appeal! A visit to Bunea Wilderness Cabin is a truly special experience.

                                    [introduction] => The Comisu hide offers another superb, off-the-beaten-track option for those keen to leave the hustle and bustle of modern life well and truly behind. Perched in a beautiful meadow above the tree line, the views across the Făgăraș Mountains are simply incredible. The hide itself is simple and rustic in nature and so time here requires a sense of adventure. Sleeping arrangements are basic, comprising bunkbeds set around a cosy log burner with warm sleeping bags provided … since the hide sits at 1,700 metres both are very welcome in the chilly evenings. The toilet is located just outside the hide, and there is no shower or electricity. However, this is absolutely the draw of Comisu; its rustic nature offers exciting wildlife viewing opportunities far from civilisation, and a couple of nights spent here will never be forgotten.

Summary

We are all familiar with the abundance of birds that return each summer to breed within the wetlands of Romania’s beautiful Danube Delta but, as the days shorten and the weather cools, many of these species head south to warmer climes to be replaced by an equally spectacular number and variety of wintering birds. Largely uninhabited, with the exception of a few fishing and farming villages, the Delta has an ethereal beauty in the winter. Corridors of willow and poplar trees stand frail and naked, exposed to hard frosts and snow; reedbeds rustle in a chilly wind and sandy islands support forests and the occasional small village, some of which are still constructed of traditional reed and wood. This is a peaceful place, disturbed only by the incessant babble of ducks and the distant honking of thousands of geese from out across the plains. Tens of thousands of Russian White-fronted Geese and ‘Eastern’ Greylag Geese return here each winter to take advantage of the rich feeding in the wheat fields and marshes around the edge of the Delta. Within these large gatherings of geese, however, can be found flocks of Romania’s star wintering bird, the beautiful, delicate and increasingly rare Red-breasted Goose.

December is one of best months to go in search of the Red-breasted Geese flocks. At this time of year all of the birds have arrived into the Delta from their breeding grounds on the Russian steppe, but the weather has not hardened sufficiently to tempt them to move further south into the less accessible wetlands of Bulgaria. These beautiful birds add a splash of festive colour to Romania’s frosty winter landscape and will be the undoubted highlight of this exciting Christmas tour. The geese, however, are only one facet of this yuletide break for the supporting cast of raptors, waders, woodpeckers and other wintering species will also keep us entertained during daylight hours, whilst in the evenings there are the Christmas festivities themselves to enjoy ... Romanian style, of course. Who knows, we may even experience that ‘white Christmas’ we have all been dreaming about for years!

Our holiday starts, however, with a flight into Bucharest, the capital of Romania through which the River Danube flows. After spending one night nearby, we will drive east and base ourselves for the next two nights in Tulcea which sits at the western edge of the Danube Delta, at the point where the mighty river suddenly splits and fans out to create the maze of waterways, lagoons, reedbeds and islands of this internationally important biosphere reserve and UNESCO World Heritage Site. Since the geese tend to wander and do not always favour the same areas from year to year, we will keep the programme for the following days flexible to take account of this and other variables, such as weather, recent sightings and the advice of our local guides. Over the past few winters, however, many of the Redbreasted Geese have favoured the fields and wetlands around Enisala and Murighiol to the south-east of Tulcea and so we are very likely to spend time exploring this rich area. In addition to an abundance of the wintering ducks common in the UK, we will be looking out for other less familiar waterbirds such as Red-crested Pochard, Pygmy Cormorant and both White and Dalmatian Pelicans. Wintering raptors are particularly well represented in this region — especially favouring the nearby Babadag Plateau and Dobrogea Steppe — and we should be on the lookout for Rough-legged and Longlegged Buzzards, White-tailed Eagle, Hen and Marsh Harriers, Peregrine and Merlin during our time here.

Next, we move south to end our tour with two nights in a simple, but comfortable, hotel near Constanta from where we explore Lake Techirghiol — often favoured by large flocks of Black-necked Grebes and the occasional White-headed Duck — and other wetlands along the Black Sea coast. En route we will look for more mixed geese flocks around Istria, Vadu and Lake Sinoe and search for a few of the smaller passerines and woodpeckers that remain here for the winter, including Black, Middle Spotted and Grey-headed Woodpeckers, Sombre Tit, Hawfinch and Calandra Lark. For those of the group interested in a challenge there will be plenty of gulls to scan through, and hopefully a few interesting species to find including Caspian Gull, Little Gull and perhaps even a Pallas’ Gull.

Our festive tour to Romania’s Danube Delta ends back in Bucharest from where you can either extend your stay with a couple of nights in this interesting and historic city or return home.
