Birdwatching in Torcello, Venice

The Northern Lagoon of Venice has always been a crossroads for a significant amount of migratory species .

Some of them spend short periods here, for a break during their long journey between one continent and another. Others stay here much longer, becoming part of the local fauna.

This variety of bird species attracts many bird watchers from all over the world. However, the Venice Lagoon is not easily accessible, like all those areas where nature still has a predominant role in human activity.

It is for this reason that Andrea Rossi has thought that his knowledge of the lagoon ecosystem could be of great help to all birdwatching enthusiasts, who wish to admire closely the species that live in these places.
