The best feature of this feathered game is its delicious meat.

Feathered Game

In Western Europe is  unknown that in Bulgaria there are many well-managed areas rich in  feathered game. In difference of that, our country is very popular in the Mediterranean. Each year we welcome hundreds of hunters from United Kingdom, Italy, Greece, Cyprus and even from France, who hunt pheasants, partridges, rock partridges, ducks, geese, woodcock, doves and quail in Bulgaria. Along with that can be hunted and rabbits.With the hunting of pigeon we  begin in early August.The daily hunt in northeastern Bulgaria is very good.The  area and the  biotope  are ideal for those pigeons - enormous agricultural massifs with cereals  chopped  by forest and waterways.

In early October  began hunting of pheasants.Their populations, as well as these of rabbits are very good.4-5 hunters are shooting  during the day between 50 and 100 pcs. game. At the same time and grouse hunting.

Woodcock hunting is a passion of many hunters of feathered game. But this type of hunting depends  very much of the time. Usually the best period is in November in the region of the Black Sea.

In the Danube Valley we are  organizing  very successful hunting wild ducks and geese, mostly along the Danube, but also along the inland  areas in the vicinity.

Taking hunting dogs is  possible. But the hunting farms dispose with their  own well trained dogs.
