Description

In Winter, hunting блатна еја over the reeds is a common sight, along with waterfowl on the pools, Кукавија hunting over the grassy areas, some increasingly spectacular murmaerations of обичен сколовранец and with the chance of мустаклеста сипка. Year round there are a number of way marked trails to follow through the reserve. Summer brings сокол ластовичар and свиларче which can occasionally be heard over winter now too. Woodland birds are found in the wooded area to the south of the reserve.
