    birding the danube delta

    Hi Ian, Penduline Tit is certainly there too. Do you have specific dates in mind? If it were me I would get in touch with Iliuta and tell him your situation, he might well have other potential clients in a similar position. Personally I wouldn't just turn up 'on the fly'.

    I saw it on both my visits, though not in big numbers, although I'm sure if you targeted it it shouldn't be too difficult - there's certainly more than enough suitable habitat! Chris

    birding the danube delta

    I have been to Mila 23 twice so will try to help! It is a smallish island and really just a base to explore the delta from. I suppose it would be possible to hire a boat and driver locally (everyone uses boats to get around) but you are likely to be in the hands of a fisherman who won't...
