Descrizione
The River Monnow is a scenic area noted for blossoming fruit orchards in spring. On warm mornings up to 50 Corvo imperiale soar the thermals, with Poiana and maybe a Sparviere. On the river there are Airone cenerino, Garzetta, Ballerina gialla, Topino, Rondone comune, Martin pescatore, Merlo acquaiolo and Anatra mandarina. The fruit orchards attract large numbers of wintering Cesena and Tordo sassello.
