Çamlıca Hill offers a panoramic view of the southern part of Bosphorus and the mouth of the Golden Horn. Especially during bird migration in September and October, the birding can be fantastic here, when you can catch sight of many raptors and other migratory birds gliding over the strait. Birds you can observe include Águila Pomerana, Culebrera Europea, Alcotán Europeo, Águila calzada, Gavilán Común, Gavilán Griego, Abejero Europeo, Milano Negro, Cigüeña Negra and Cigüeña Blanca.
