This Natura 2000 area is mainly made up of meadows around a backwater of the river Saône.
Chaumette Island is an arm of the river Saône which was deliberately disconnected from the river in the 19th century. Today it constitutes an interesting wetland for birds, especially herons like Nathejre, Kohejre and Sølvhejre. In winter much more rarely you can observe Rørdrum. The surrounding environments are made up of meadows and crops where you can observe Skovspurv and Storspove. Several wetlands are also present and can attract migrants such as Dobbeltbekkasin or more rarely Tophejre.
