Description

Hălceni lake and Miletin swamp is formed by a flooded area in spring and autumn due to the abundant rainfall and an accumulation lake used as a source of drinking water for the neighboring localities. If the swamp gathers thousands of specimens and tens of shorebird species during the migration, the lake sustains during the winter several thousand ducks and geese.
