Meeting the birds of the Dombes

Salle Polyvalente, 161 Rue Marcel Paul Duperrier, 01330 Villars-les-Dombes

Description

With over 200 recorded species, the Dombes region is one of France's richest birdwatching sites. During the tour, Diane—a passionate guide—will take you to the best observation spots along the ponds that shape the landscape. Let yourself be captivated by the scenery in the heart of a unique, unspoiled natural setting—a true haven for the birds that live there. You might spot herons, storks, ducks, grebes, teals, or even the green sandpiper (yes, really!) and other winged visitors that make this region so renowned. Every outing holds its own surprises. You will learn to identify different species, recognize their calls, and understand their behavior. It is an immersive experience that sparks children's curiosity and delights adults—whether experts or beginners. Binoculars are provided, and a sense of wonder is guaranteed. Carpooling is organized between the meeting point and the activity site. Limited spaces available – booking required.
