Descripción

This small but very special nature reserve offers birders the chance to see a wealth of reedbed specialists, as well as a brilliant variety of invertebrates including Swallowtail Butterfly and Norfolk Hawker Dragonfly.

In the winter, look out for Lechuza Común quartering the reedbed on cold, still evenings. The woodland holds Carbonero Palustre, Camachuelo Común and other common garden birds. You will likely see Aguilucho Lagunero Occidental around the reserve too. In the spring, listen out for the iconic sounds of Cuco Común as well as a whole host of warblers including Cetia Ruiseñor, Carricerín Común, Carricero Común, Buscarla Pintoja and Mosquitero Musical.

In summer and autumn, you may encounter roaming flocks of Bigotudo in the reeds, while Alcotán Europeo will be hawking for dragonflies overhead. This is a very peaceful reserve, especially in early mornings and evenings, so is a fantastic place to get your dose of nature therapy.
