Borsodi-mezőség

Ossature, this is a French world I have learned recently and this blog is pretty much like this so only a frame so far. I visited nearly all the Ramsar sites in Hungary and I'm willing to fill this blog with detailed information about those sites. Maps, the time of visit, species list and other useful tips for everyone who is willing to explore the wilderness of our beloved country.
Below one can see the area called Borsodi-mezőség, which is found near the Hortobágy region. We explored the site only a little spending a night in Mezőnagymihály.


The weather condition was not appropriate for a family trip so we skipped the long tracking and only had one stop near the road to Ároktő, where we took the ferry boat to the other side of the river Tisza.


This traditional well serves to give water to the cattle and it is still in use! Moreover we have met a man walking a sheepdog who was pretty much the kind of person who let's say a bit rural. He was a Hungarian "cowboy" I guess...
The habitat was full of water patches and could have been a nice stop over site for migrating waders but we could not spot any this time.  



I could even catch the fading Sun with our new Nikon D3200 camera. With this machine we have entered a new era probably and can't wait to have proper lenses to put some nice bird photo on this site! Will have to visit all the sites again if we purchased the new lens and we are also packed up with a telescope which will certainly allow us to identify and spot more species, flying or having a rest around.




For any grammatical mistake I apologize and will correct the language when revising the site. It is still released officially...
