The Almiropotamos river is a spot to look for migrating herons and crakes. The large and dense reedbeds are great for these species!
Just west of Vatera, the Almiropotamos river is located and leads towards the sea in the south. The river's edge is covered in large and dense reedbeds, which are great for migrating herons and crakes. First, you can scan the river mouth near the sea for egrets, herons and waders. Out on the sea, you can see flocks of Stormskrofa. The reedbeds already start near the sea, and species like Reyrsöngvari can be heard here often.
Further down the river, the road crosses the river by a bridge. You can get a great overview over the river from off this bridge, and scan the area for herons and crakes, like Rindilþvari and Flóðrella. The reedbeds are great for Reyrsöngvari and flocks of Spánarspör.
The surrounding fields are fairly dry, and scattered trees and bushes can be great for migrating flycatchers, warblers and shrikes.
You can access the area by using the roads and the bridge (see map).
