It was a short visit to Albania, so I didn't have much chance to take nature pictures. I was concentrating on birds, so the rest of nature took a back seat. Here are the few pictures that I have.

The area around Lake Ohrid is very scenic. I enjoyed the drive around the lake.

The Natural and Cultural Heritage of the Ohrid region is a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
