Description
Lake Almyros is one of the most important wetlands of western Crete. In the lake you can find many aquatic birds. The lake is not only worth a visit for waterfowl. In Georgioupoulis I found the largest vlaštovka obecná roost I have seen so far! Among the other birds you can encounter are vodouš šedý, vodouš bahenní, bekasina otavní, pisík obecný, vodouš kropenatý, ledňáček říční, rorýs velký, volavka stříbřitá, Racek středomořský, stehlík obecný, vrabec italský and cetie jižní.
