Description
Near the Pikla ponds in Luitemaa Nature Protection Area, there are two birdwatching towers – one is between the ponds and the second one, which is not as high, is located on the beach. The towers are perfect for birdwatching because they provide a great view of the coastal meadow and the sea. The low and indented coast is a favourable place for feeding and stopping for a lot of waterbirds. The birds you can see here include Whooper Swan, Eurasian Wigeon, Common Goldeneye, Wood Sandpiper, Common Redshank, White-tailed Eagle, Western Marsh Harrier, Bearded Tit, Great Reed Warbler, Northern Wheatear and others.
