Opis

From a birding point of view the Agia (or Ayia) Reservoir is undoubtedly the best wetland on Crete. The large areas of open water, extensive reedbeds and surrounding scrubland attract many species of interest during the breeding season and on migratory passage, like karliczka, zielonka, kropiatka, bąk, bączek, czapla purpurowa, ślepowron, Trzmielojad, myszołów, błotniak stawowy to mention a few.
