Beschrijving
In and of itself the Salinas de Santa Maria probably wouldn't merit a visit but being only 15 minutes drive from the well known and visited Laguna de Medina it offers a quick way to bump up your bird list with minimal effort. A track takes you between rough fields, saline esturine marshes and working salinas (not beware heavy lorries using the track). Birds can include those you might see at Laguna de Medina when it's relatively dry with muddy margins - like Flamingo, Vorkstaartplevier, Steltkluut and other waders - but adds several species you might otherwise miss. Look for Dwergstern, Dunbekmeeuw and possibly other gulls on the salinas, Kortteenleeuwerik on the track and Kleine Kortteenleeuwerik in the low saline scrub. Explore the track by car to the bridge over the motorway afterwhich it becomes impassable. The nearby rubbish tip sometimes attracts Oehoe and Atlasarendbuizerd has wintered along the route from Laguna de Medina.
