Romania Wildlife Photography

Romania is a superb destination for wildlife photographers, thanks largely to the vast wetland wilderness of the Danube Delta, one of Europe's most important refuges for waterbirds. Its labyrinth of reedbeds, lagoons and channels, along with the rugged terrain of nearby Macin Mountain National Park, creates a rich mosaic of habitats that draws an impressive variety of species within reach of the camera lens.

Species NaturesLens Photographs in Romania

NaturesLens runs its Birds of the Danube Delta holiday each May, timed to coincide with the breeding and migration activity that brings the region's birdlife into full view. During this trip, NaturesLens photographs species such as the Dalmatian Pelican, White-tailed Eagle and Great Egret, alongside Squacco Heron, Bearded Reedling and Black-winged Stilt among the reeds and shallows. The itinerary also offers opportunities to capture Black Tern, Common Tern, Collared Pratincole, Common Kingfisher, Common Buzzard and Eurasian Hobby as they hunt and display across the Delta's open waters and skies, with the wooded slopes of Macin Mountain National Park adding further variety to the trip.
