Descrição
Lac de Mison is a small lake surrounded by woodland, bushlands and hay fields. The lake is popular with local anglers. But it is even better for birders. Because the lake is bordered by a wide reed collar, it attracts some special bird species that are not always easily found in the region.
Most prominent is the Garça-pequena. It breeds in de reedbeds and shows itself relatively easy. Just as easy you can see Rouxinol-grande-dos-caniços. More difficult is, as always, the Abetouro-comum, that also lives around the lake. These are the 3 star species of Lake Mison, but you can see many more birds on and around the lake. See the extendend list below.
Note: from February 1 to June 30, a small section of the lake (between 1 and 2 on the map) is closed to prevent disturbance of breeding birds. You cannot make a circular walk then. Fortunately, the best places to see Garça-pequena and Rouxinol-grande-dos-caniços are still accessible. They are marked on the map.
