Urban Birdwatching in Benfica Quarter
Details
Walk Intro (See Gallery below)
Benfica quarter is clearly urban but it borders many city outskirts and big parks, showing several remanences of was still the countryside, when Lisbon was smaller
A surprising mix of urban and park birds can be seen, from the smallest Wrens, to bigger Herons, including (believe it or not) Peregrine Falcon, if we get lucky
I worked 21 years in Nature Conservation in Lisbon, so count on some knowledgeable guidance
