Descripción

Parque da Pasteleira is a small city park, with around 7 hectares. It preserves some of the last remains of the pine forest that used to cover the area. Most of the park is located in a sloped area, which is mainly covered by pine and oak forest. On the lower part of the park there is a lake surrounded by gardens and a couple of grassy areas. When birding in this spot, the two main areas of interest should be the lake and the forested areas.

Although not big, the lake attracts some species of ducks such as Ánade azulón, Ganso del Nilo and Cuchara Común. It is also a gathering place for gulls, mainly Gaviota Patiamarilla and Gaviota sombría. The margins should be scouted for Martín Pescador Común, Andarríos Chico, Garza Real and Garceta Común. During spring and summer, swallows and swifts can be found feeding over the lake. Some of the most common species are Vencejo Común, Golondrina Común and Avión Roquero(which is present all year round).

Estornino Negro, Paloma Torcaz, Tórtola Turca, Urraca común and Corneja Negra can be seen in or around the surrounding grass patches. The pine and oak forest is home to a large diversity of species. The illusive Pito Real and Pico Picapinos are most often heard than seen. The Arrendajo Euroasiático is quite common in the area, just like other typical forest species like Agateador Europeo, Pinzón Vulgar, Carbonero Garrapinos and Carbonero Común.
