The Danube Delta and Macin National Park are a bird photographer’s paradise, especially in the spring and early summer. With their network of channels, reed beds, wetlands, and rocky hills, these areas burst into life as migratory and resident bird species appear in their vibrant breeding plumage. From the graceful flight of pelicans, birds of prey, and herons to the vivid hues of bee-eaters, Eurasian Hoopoes, and kingfishers, these areas offer an unparalleled opportunity to capture one of the most diverse ecosystems in the world.

To end this trip, we will visit the Carpathian Basin, one of Europe’s last strongholds for Carpathian brown bears. Wildflowers bloom in late May and early June, providing a stunning backdrop for capturing these mammals in various lighting conditions.

Join us for this wildlife photo workshop with two experienced photography guides in the heart of Europe’s largest and best-preserved wildlife areas.
