Description
The area is made up of multiple brackish water surfaces, some of which are used for bathing due to its mineral content. In drier seasons the shallow waters turn into mud baths which attract migrating waterfowl and waders such as Μαχητής, Καλαμοκανάς, Ποταμοσφυριχτής, Αμμοσφυριχτής, Λασπότρυγγας, Δασότρυγγας, Βαλτότρυγγας, (Ευρωπαϊκή) Αβοκέτα and also rails like Στικτοπουλάδα. The surrounding wooded areas have their own list of inhabitants. For example (Ευρωπαϊκός) Γκιώνης, (Ευρωπαϊκός) Συκοφάγος and (Κοινό) Αηδόνι.
