Beschreibung
Molentargius, which was the richest Sardinian basin for sea-salt extraction for two and a half centuries - an activity that ceased in 1985 - has become one of the main resting and nesting sites of aquatic birds in Europe. The Molentargius-Saline extends across 1,600 hectares near the city of Cagliari. It consists of two main pools; Bellarosa Minore to the north east, a smaller freshwater pool and Bellarosa Maggiore to the south west, a much larger brackish pool. In between these 2 pools, there are numerous reed-filled freshwater pools and canals. Both to the south, and along the coast, to the south east, there are many other pools, including the Stagni di Quartu, used in the past to produce salt.
On the embankment of Bellarosa Maggiore Rosaflamingo and Dünnschnabelmöwe nest. The reed of the Bellarosa Minore is a refuge for nesting birds as Kuhreiher, Stelzenläufer, Seidenreiher and numerous species of ducks. With a little luck, you will see Purpurhuhn, with its metallic blue plumage and scarlet red beak.
Other interesting breeding birds are Rallenreiher, Purpurreiher, Nachtreiher, Lachseeschwalbe, Zwergseeschwalbe, Moorente, Säbelschnäbler, Rohrweihe and Seeregenpfeifer. Korallenmöwe can be seen at quieter times of the year around the Stagni di Quartu and along the beach.
The pools are also very good for migrant species, including Sichler, Löffler, Knäkente, Dunkler Wasserläufer and plenty of other waders. Wintering species include Kolbenente and Löffler.
