6 Weeks in Germany: Touring Salzburg, Munich and Nuremberg

During the final week of my trip, all the exchange students from my school went on a brief tour of Nuremberg, Munich and Salzburg.
Here, a few other species were seen.
On the train to Nuremberg from Berlin, I saw the only red kite of the trip, and many common ravens. In Nuremberg itself, along the river were similar birds to those along the Spree. At Nuremberg Castle was a pair of Peregrine falcons and many carrion crows.
Munich had no birds of note, however at Salzburg we visited Salzburg Castle, where among other species I saw the only jackdaws of the trip, many more carrion crows and several Alpine accentors.
