The Great White Pelican (Pelecanus onocrotalus)
More than 50% of Europe's great white pelicans are breeding in the Danube Delta. They are often seen in large numbers during feeding frenzies. There is also an area that is protected and visitors are not allowed to go there, however you'll get to see plenty of them during your stay.
Danube Delta is one of the most bio-diverse places in Europe! The wetlands that form the delta are the perfect place for water birds. Danube Delta is great for bird photography, with a lot of bird species migrating here from all over the world! This is definitely a birder's paradise!
