Opis
The Kalloni Saltpans consists of an extensive area of saltpans, located on the northern side of the Kólpos Kallonís Bay in the center of the island of Lesvos. It is (possibly) thé best place for birdwatchers on the island! The saltpans cover about 260 ha and consists of numerous rectangular-shaped pans. The water levels differs continually during each season. The area is a hotspot for so many species of birds, being mainly waders, gulls, terns and so many more species.
The eastern side of the area has definitely not as many birds as the western side, but it's still a great place to visit and see so many species of birds. Especially the southeastern side of the saltpans is great for birds, as this side has more shallow drier mudflats. Common species, that can be observed by hundreds of individuals, are szablodziób, łęczak, krwawodziób, sieweczka morska and biegus malutki. Pelicans are often observed on this side of the saltpans, like pelikan kędzierzawy and pelikan różowy. The eastern side of the saltpans is also good for flaming różowy, but not as much as the western side. Hundreds of individuals can be observed here, feeding in the pans.
The unpaved path on the eastern side of the pans can be used to observe the pans. This path is especially at the beginning of the day a good place to observe the birds, because of the sunlight. The area east of the saltpans contains scattered trees and bushes and open grassy areas. This is a good spot for species, like kulon (zwyczajny), żwirowiec łąkowy and many species of bunting, warbler, wagtail, pipit and many more.
