The City’s Quiet Paddler

The moorhen, with its striking red bill and white flank markings, is a common sight along Vienna’s waterways. These shy but agile birds thrive in the city’s ponds and rivers, adding a touch of wilderness to the urban landscape. Keep an eye out for them paddling through the water or foraging along the shorelines!
