Description
The Vinne is a large natural lake with a rich bird population. In the spring, the atmosphere here is determined by the hustle and bustle of a large colony of езерски галеб. Trails winding gently over the water lead you over the Vinne lake and you pass various birdwatching hides. Among the interesting birds you can see here are голем воден бик, барска кокошка, патка берија, свиларче, патка лажичарка, and Мал воден бик. Very occasionally сипка торбарка and ноќна чапја are observed. During spring and autumn migration, this area is also a hotspot for waders.
