Birds & Wildlife at Kondor EcoLodge, Kiskunság NP, Hungary

BIRDS, MAMMALS, BUTTERFLIES, MOTH, DRAGONFLIES, WILDFLOWERS

We offer an unique place as a base to stay to discover the special birds, mammals, butterflies, dragonflies, botanical and other natural values of the "Hungarian Puszta". Traditional thatched-roofed houses, home-made food, wine cellar, tranquil forest and garden with attractive species makes Kondor EcoLodge a perfect base for a great wildlife holiday. A friendly, relaxing atmosphere is guaranteed by a couple who lives and works half year here in Hungary and other Eastern European destinations, other half year in Latin America! Surely once you visit this place you definitely want to return soon!

Similarly to Hortobágy, the scenic Kiskunság National Park still preserves parts of the once continuous Eurasian steppe, the so called "puszta". Bird species found here reflect this special habitat, which is really different to other regions of Europe. The Kiskunság NP hosts one of the biggest populations of Great Bustards in Europe, but has other highlights to offer as well. Alkaline lakes and temporary flooded areas of grassland attract huge numbers of ducks, geese and waders. Species include Ferruginous Duck, Garganey, White-winged Black Tern, thousands of Ruff, Golden Plovers and other migrating shorebirds. We might be able to see Stone-Curlew, Collared Pratincole, Tawny Pipit, Red-throated Pipit and later in May Lesser Grey Shrike, Roller, Golden Oriole and Bee-Eater.
