Description
Molentargius, which was the richest Sardinian basin for sea-salt extraction for two and a half centuries - an activity that ceased in 1985 - has become one of the main resting and nesting sites of aquatic birds in Europe. The Molentargius Saline extends across 1,600 hectares near the city of Cagliari. There are many bigger an smaller lagoons you can visit. One of the best places for birdwatching is the smaller lagoon of Stagno Perdabianca (1). Also of interest are the two main lagoons. Bellarosa Maggiore (2) is a large brackish lagoon and Bellarosa Minore (3) to the north east, is a smaller freshwater lagoon. In between the lagoons, there are numerous reed-filled freshwater pools and canals.
In the Stagno Perdabianca Flamant rose can often be observed from a short distance, as well as a Pélican blanc that lives there for several years. A Héron garde-boeufs colony with a small observation platform is located on Viale della Fauna, just northeast of the observation tower.
On the embankment of Bellarosa Maggiore Flamant rose and Goéland railleur nest. The reed of the Bellarosa Minore is a refuge for nesting birds as Héron garde-boeufs, Échasse blanche, Aigrette garzette and numerous species of ducks. With a little luck, you will see Talève sultane, with its metallic blue plumage and scarlet red beak.
Other interesting breeding birds are Crabier chevelu, Héron pourpré, Bihoreau gris, Sterne hansel, Sterne naine, Fuligule nyroca, Avocette élégante, Busard des roseaux and Gravelot à collier interrompu.
The lagoons are also very good for migrant species, including Ibis falcinelle, Spatule blanche, Sarcelle d'été, Chevalier arlequin and plenty of other waders. Wintering species include Nette rousse and Spatule blanche.
