Descrizione
Canhão do Erges is one of the most inhospitable and remote places in Portugal. The Erges is still a wild river with great erosive capacity that led to the formation of three impressive gorges within a short distance. Exploring these canyons, where the river flows at a depth of 150 m, is a perfect opportunity to discover a great diversity of birds. The cliffs are an important nesting and resting place for Grifone, Capovaccaio, Black Vulture, Cicogna nera, Aquila di Bonelli, Passero solitario and Gufo reale. Here, the skies are also crossed by birds of prey like Biancone, Aquila minore, Aquila reale, Nibbio reale, Nibbio bruno, Poiana and aerial birds such as Rondone maggiore, Rondone comune, Topino, Rondine, Balestruccio, Rondine montana and Rondine rossiccia.
From the Roman bridge of Segura, that connects Portugal to Spain, you can observe Martin pescatore, Tuffetto, Piro piro piccolo, Piro piro culbianco, Cormorano and Airone cenerino. This is also a great place to observe Canapino comune, Usignolo di fiume, Capinera, Occhiocotto, Bigia grossa and Magnanina comune, which usually feed and shelter in the bushes by the river. In the surroundings lands of Segura it is possible to detect and watch birds like Quaglia, Pernice rossa, Colombella, Cuculo dal ciuffo, Cuculo, Pavoncella, Upupa, Gruccione, Rigogolo, Averla capirossa, Averla meridionale, Gazza aliazzurre iberica, Gazza, Cappellaccia di Thekla, Passera sarda, Passera lagia, Fanello, Strillozzo, Zigolo muciatto and Zigolo nero.
