Beschrijving
The wetland of Paul de Tornada and the surrounding area makes up a flooded expanse in periods of increased rainfall. This system of ditches, with a south-north flow direction, flows into the Tornada River, which, in turn, flows into the shell of São Martinho do Porto. The wet areas makes it an attractive place for nesting and migratory birds. Among the birds you can see here are Purperreiger, Purperkoet, Paapje, Bruine Kiekendief and if you are very lucky the Blauwborst which is very rare in Portugal. And many more, see the birdlist below.
