Hello!
I am planning a trip to Zurich and Basel for the end of July - beginning of August. Have 3-4 days for birding. Could anyone recommend any good places around these cities, in between or not very far away?
I am mostly interested in mountain birds and birds that I can't see around Moscow.
My wish list consists of 23 species. Don't bother to comment each, I'd be very happy just to know a few places where I can see most of them!
Here they are
Ptarmigan
Rock Partridge
Stone Curlew
Rock Dove (a real one)
Barn Owl
Scops Owl
Alpine Swift
Crag Martin
Water Pipit
Grey Wagtail
Alpine Accentor
Blue Rock Thrush
Rock Thrush
Ring Ouzel
Bonelli's Warbler
Firecrest
Wallcreeper
Woodchat Shrike
Alpine Chough
Snowfinch
Citril Finch
Cirl Bunting
Rock Bunting
Is there anything in this list that is not possible in the area this time of year?
Thank you a lot in advance!
Aleksey
