Area of wet meadows along the river Maine. La Baumette is flooded part of the year causing many birds to stop there during migration.
La Baumette is a set of floodplains interspersed with groves. Flooded for part of the year, it is home to many migratory species such as Halászsas, Fekete gólya or Sztyeppi sirály but also allows birds from the surrounding area to come here to feed. You can also see birds from the heron colony at Lac de Maine, such as Kanalasgém and Pásztorgém. Les Prairies de la Baumette is home to the highest population of Bütykös hattyú in the area with large congregations in winter and early spring.
