Wildlife and Countryside of Northern France


We provide birdwatching and wildlife tours in Northern France which include daily guided excursions so please read on to find out more.

All birders know about the diversity of bird life in The Camargue, Le Crau and the Pyrenees. But do you race through Normandy, Brittany and Pays de la Loire to get there? What a pity! Read on!

Northern France Wildlife Tours, based in Averton, Mayenne, was born when Roy and Shirley Croucher realised that breeding Black Woodpeckers, Little Bustards and White Storks were well worth stopping for. When they found country lanes lined with orchids and cowslips, over which danced Swallowtail and Clouded Yellow Butterflies and Hummingbird Hawk Moths, they were convinced!

The extensive forests around Place de l'Eglise are home to Wild Boar and a huge variety of other fauna and flora. We also organise trips further afield for Ortolans, Bluethroats, Yelkouan Shearwaters, Bee-eaters, Rock Sparrows and Blue-headed Wagtails.

These all add up to a fascinating and stimulating itinerary. Also, since Roy has a permit for mammal trapping, you may well have the opportunity for a close encounter with a Garden Dormouse, Bi-coloured Shrew or Pine Vole (perhaps!).
