The lagoon of Venice is a vast wetland creating a natural habitat for numerous types of birds. A day on the lagoon discovering the northern reaches and the birds that live there is truly magical. We have to proceed at a snail’s pace #cormorant #wader #egret #ducks #geese flamingo especially in spring time.  The Venetians and the lagoon My favourite - il mio #preferito vino di Friuli @liviofelluga @ufficioturisticocividale #vini #orientali #collio #educatedtraveller Exceptional day of discovery - Northern Lagoon, Lio Piccolo, Palude, Torcello, San Francesco del Deserto e poi Sant’Erasmo, Lazzaretto Nuovo, Vignole e finalmente Lido - grazie mille a Mattia e Claudio @classic.boats.venice una giornata stupenda! Venice today #now #stravedamente #grandtourist #educatedtraveller #lido Santo Stefano Beautiful video from San Marco courtesy of my friend Shoghik @guidaavenezia #venezia #venice #grandtourist #Armenianculture The day starts with typical Venetian caigo! Clear a up during the day, stroll, printer, Scuola S Giorgio, Carpaccio, Mimmo #grandtourist #educatedtraveller #venezia #carpaccio #giudecca #arte #caigo #stamperia #giannibasso Bellissima Venezia @comunevenezia @understand_venice @visitveneto #grandtourist #educatedtraveller #venezia
