Buzancy argonne
Buzancy is a village in the northern part of the Argonne (South of Sedan). It is a wooded and hilly area. Very quiet, with some remarkable species. For example booted eagle breeds here. You won’t find rocky places, so common wall lizard is rare here. We have only seen e few in a small quarry near Grandpré.
