Hi all,
I've found out today that I need to attend a meeting in Ljubljana, Slovenia in early December.
The meeting is on a Friday, so I have the potential to stay on for the weekend and do some birding!
All I've been able to find so far is one trip report covering the winter period written by the Norfolk Punkbirders (http://www.surfbirds.com/trip_report.php?id=606) and I've not really got my head around the local geography. So, I'd really appreciate any further gen!
In particular, can anyone help me with the following questions:
1) Are there any reliable winter sites near Ljubljana for Syrian and White-backed Woodpecker?
2) Is there any chance of Rock Partridge in winter anywhere near Ljubljana?
3) and finally, any good recommended winter birding locations nearby?
All help will be most gratefully received.
Thanks alot!
