Description
Lake Fehér is is a part of Kiskunság National Park, and covers an area of 14 square kilometres. Lake Fehér is Hungary's largest saltwater lake. It is carefully protected because it is home to 280 species of bird. The classic sodic lake environment has disappeared and its place has been taken by the characteristic wildlife of fishponds and their reedbeds. Despite the changes, the lakes still attract many birds. Fehér-tó is a fishpond system and it has a rich bird and wildlife and during the migration period it is a very important resting places for migrating birds. During the migration season, crowds of (Ευρωπαϊκός) Γερανός, geese, and ducks are visible on Lake Fehér. Most of Hungary’s heron species breed in the bigger reed-islands of the area. The dense reedbeds offer excellent conditions for (Μεγάλο) Καλαμοτσίχλονο and Μουστακαλής. They can be found in the reedbeds of Lake Fehér the whole year. Τσιχλοποταμίδα , Καλαμοποταμίδα, Σχοινοποταμίδα, Καλαμοτριλιστής and Ψαθοποταμίδα stay in the area merely in the breeding period.
