Lesvos  >  Greece

The Voulgaris River is a great spot to find autumn migrants, both in the river and the surrounding fields.

Description

The valley in which the Voulgaris River is located is very green, and can be great to look around for migrants during autumn migration. The river is used as breeding habitat by Tadorne casarca. During migration, the river can be packed with flocks of pipits, wagtails, flycatchers and warblers. The beaches provide some nice shrubs to check for migrants, like flocks of Pouillot fitis and other songbirds.

The green agricultural fields east of the river are great to check for flocks of pipits, and if there are puddles made by sprinklers, even waders. Even Vanneau éperonné has been seen here.

The area also provides great views over sea to spot flocks of Puffin yelkouan and gulls, like Goéland leucophée and even Goéland d'Audouin.

Accès
