Descrizione

The colony of Cormorano in De Geul is impressive (over 1000 nests in 2020) and the Spatola fly on and off to their colony too. The number of ducks can vary, but species like Mestolone , Canapiglia , Moretta , Moriglione and sometimes Marzaiola can be observed, while songbirds like Pettazzurro and Usignolo perform as a background choir. In some years, Svasso piccolo will breed here.
