Museo ornitologico di Chiaramonte Gulfi

Among the pieces to admire immediately, at the beginning of the visit, stands out the Imperial Crow with other Common Crows, along with the Jay and the Magpie. Then you will find the Owlets, then the Barn Owl, the Eurasian Eagle-Owl, mingled with the Tawny Owl and the Marsh Owl. Until the evocative Snowy Owl appears to us. Many species of Buzzards are displayed (from the Common Buzzard to the Booted Buzzard), the species of Falcons (including the Peregrine Falcon and the Honey Buzzard, also known because it feeds on Bees and Wasps after skillfully removing their stinger), the young Sparrowhawk, then the Kites with the Black Kite in the foreground. Notable are the sections dedicated to Eagles, Vultures, and Griffons: majestic and “imperial” the individual specimens of these birds of prey. Following are Pelicans and Cormorants, up to the Partridges, Bustards, Grouses, and the beautiful bodies of Gulls, among which the Great Black-backed Gull.
