Descripción
The Vergias river, also known as the Chalandra river, leads from the sea all the way towards the dam at Pithariou reservoir. Like many other rivers facing southwest on the island, migrants tend to follow the riverbed further inland. Along the route, you can scan (scattered) bushes and trees for migrants, like flycatchers and warblers. Scan wires and fences for chats and shrikes, like Alcaudón Chico and Tarabilla común. Overhead, lots of migrants, like herons, storks, swifts, Abejaruco Europeo and raptors can be seen, flying inland.
On the beach and the adjacent fields, migrants can be seen resting when they finally arrived on the island; especially early in the morning. Species like Codorniz Común and Alcaraván Común have been seen here too.
Just near the beach, a bridge crosses the river from which you can observe the river for herons and waders, like Avetorillo común, Andarríos Grande, Correlimos de Temminck, Correlimos Menudo, Garcilla Cangrejera and Tarro Canelo. In the surrounding bushes, species like Cetia Ruiseñor and Gorrión Moruno can be found.
Over sea, flocks of Pardela Mediterránea can be seen, and sometimes Pardela cenicienta mediterránea are mixed with these flocks.
