Beschrijving
David Gareji Monastery is located in a remote and expansive part of Georgia. Surrounded by steppes and sandstone formations, the monastery is worth spending a half day exploring. The monastery is carved into a rock and surrounded by sparse vegetation. Several birds breed in the immediate vicinity of the monastery, such as Rotsklever, Rotsmus, Hop Blauwe Rotslijster, Roodkopklauwier and Blonde Tapuit.
In addition, during a visit in spring and autumn one can see various migratory birds that temporarily reside around the monastery, such as Kleine Klapekster, Braamsluiper, Kleine Vliegenvanger, Oostelijke Orpheusgrasmus, Ortolaan and Roze Spreeuw.
When the air has warmed up a bit Bijeneter, Keizerarend, Dwergarend Alpengierzwaluw, Gierzwaluw, Aasgier, Vale Gier and Monniksgier are present around the monastery.
