Descripción

The Dumbravita & Rotbav area is formed by a systems of lakes, fishponds, reservoirs, river, rivulets, reedbeds, marshes, channels, pastures, willow stands etc. This is the only Ramsar Site in Transylvania and was administrated by Romanian Ornithological Society together with Doripesco Fishing Company (the actual former of lakes). More than 200 bird species were identified here.

From a birdwatching point of view this is the best place in central Romania because some species are breeding only here: Cormorán Pigmeo, Gaviota Cabecinegra, Grulla Común and others in the largest number of pairs: Garza Imperial, Garceta Grande, Aguilucho Lagunero Occidental. There is a very interesting mixed colony of herons, egrets and Cormorán Pigmeo. Other breeding species of interest: Avetorillo común, Porrón Pardo, Polluela Bastarda, Guión de Codornices, Cigüeñuela común, Garcilla Cangrejera, Pájaro-moscón Europeo, Carricero Políglota, Buscarla Unicolor, Oropéndola Europea and many others. During autumn migration there are even more species and usually thousands of waterbirds. In this period the most important species is Cigüeña Negra, a symbol of the area. Between August-October tens of storks are foraging in the fishponds and are very easy to see and make photo's of. The mudflats and shallow water attracts hundreds of waders, gulls, ducks etc. More than 250 Garceta Grande are dailly present. At the end of the autumn northern geese are arriving and Barnacla cuelliroja is present almost every year. Other interesting animals: Otter, Beaver, a lot of insects, amphibians etc. For more information, please visit our FaceBook account DeltadinCarpati (see the link below).
