Description
Roselière du Charnier is a marsh area mainly covered with reed beds and with numerous canals and ponds. Reed areas can be difficult for birding but this area has many paths, and especially micro-reliefs that allow you to observe above the reeds. I have never observed so many Western Marsh Harrier (visit in January-February 2022), sometimes 3 at the same time within a radius of a few hundred meters. But also Mute Swan, Greater Flamingo and Glossy Ibis. Other birds that are often observed in the area are Great Reed Warbler, Bearded Tit, Purple Swamphen, Black-winged Stilt, Eurasian Spoonbill, Zitting Cisticola, Black-crowned Night Heron, Purple Heron, Squacco Heron and Water Rail.

Français: Très grande roselière avec une grande concentration de Busards des roseaux. Marais principalement couverts de roselière, nombreux canaux et étangs. Ces milieux sont souvent peu propices à l'observation mais ici des sentiers nombreux, et surtout de micro-reliefs permettent d'observer au dessus des roseaux. Je n'ai jamais observé autant de Western Marsh Harrier (visite en janvier-février 2022), parfois 3 en même temps dans un rayon de quelques centaines de mètres. Mais aussi Mute Swan, Greater Flamingo, Glossy Ibis.
