Description

Els Muntanyans of Torredembarra and Creixell is a natural wetland situated between the sea and the railway. This natural site holds several small ponds, saltmarshes with glasswort and small dunes where interesting reptiles can be found like spiny-footed lizard (Acanthodactylus erythrurus). In the wetlands several bird species can be seen during all the year like Canard colvert, Grèbe castagneux, Gallinule poule-d'eau, Goéland leucophée, and other birds like Fauvette mélanocéphale, Tarier pâtre or Cisticole des joncs.

The site is remarkable because the Gravelot à collier interrompu breeds in this wetland and Talève sultane has also bred. But is during migrations when the site is more interesting as several shorebird species can be found, like Grand Gravelot, Bécasseau sanderling or Chevalier gambette , and several small passerines occur in the reeds, the marshy areas and the dunes; is the case of Traquet motteux, Tarier des prés, Rousserolle effarvatte, Fauvette à tête noire and several swallows. Goéland d'Audouin is present most of the year except in winter months.
