Beschrijving
The Seudre estuary is home to a large portion of the population of the nanmetum subspecies of the Blauwborst, which is endemic to the French Atlantic coast. With a bit of luck it can be observed here (other good spots are the Pointe de la Coubre, Marais de Brouage and RNMO). Some breeding birds of the Moulin des Loges reserve are Gele Kwikstaart, Cetti's Zanger, Boerenzwaluw, Steltkluut and more.
Nearby Lepelaar and different heron species, such as Kwak are breeding, as well as Visdief and Grijze Wouw. Besides from that you can observe Zomertaling and several limicole species during migration, such as Kemphaan, Grutto (keep your eyes open for the islandica subspecies), Kleine Strandloper etc. (see the list below). The open landscape also allows good observations of migrating passerines, like Paapje, Bonte Vliegenvanger, Gekraagde Roodstaart or Tapuit, as well as Draaihals. On the nearby fields you can observe Rode Patrijs, Goudplevier (only during winter), Kievit and Grauwe Gors. Note that in end of August the hunt for waders and ducks begins, which makes good observations harder.
In the summer 2025 a Gestreepte Strandloper and a Poelruiter were stationary on the side of the road for a while. I was also able to observe a Kleine Zilverreiger x Westelijke Rifreiger hybrid several times in the area.
