Description

The road towards Makara is a great route to search for many typical inland breeding species that inhabit the drier parts of the island, like orebice čukar, bělořit okrový and brhlík skalní. The rocky outcrops are a great spot for skalník modrý and strnad šedokrký. The small scattered bushes are good for migrating bramborníček hnědý, bělořit šedý and bramborníček černohlavý.

Further down the road, the road lies adjacent to a shallow valley with scattered trees, and several small groves. These areas are great for migrants, like vlha pestrá, dudek chocholatý, shrikes, warblers, swallows, swifts and flycatchers.
