Danube Delta project

Here is the second part of the DVD done for the Danube Delta project.

Even if sometimes the translation in English is not the best, like the Dalmatian Pelican being referred to as Curly pelican, or the birds' migration ways translated asa "migration roads", it still is a very good presentation. By the way, did you know that no less than five migration ways cross the geographical position of the Danube Delta ?


The Danube's Delta shelters above three hundred species of birds from Europe and from other continents. That's why the Danube Delta fully deserves it's fame as paradise of birds. We can see the small egret, the swans, the cormorants or the terns. The documentary highlights the Pelicans (Pelecanus Onocrotalus) and presents the way they fish together with the cormorants.

We also get presented the muskrat and the various species of fish . We also discover the lighthouses of Sulina and it's rich history. Images from the cemetery reminds of the legends of the XIX-th century, from love stories to pirates.
