Beschrijving

This small wetland, located in the western Algarve at the confluence of the Budens, Vale de Boi, Vale Barão, and Almádena streams, is surprising for its birdlife diversity and the presence of some uncommon species. Among the waterfowl species regularly seen here are Kleine Zilverreiger, Wilde Eend, Waterhoen, and Meerkoet. Occasionally, waders are observed. It is also possible to find some species typical of open terrain, such as Graszanger and Grauwe Gors.
