Descrição
Lac de Virlay is a former quarry transformed into a Natura 2000 area with beavers, voles and otters. You can take a 4 km walk around it. In July, I observed colonies of at least 250 Garca-vaqueira, 30 Abelharuco-comum and more than 100 Andorinha-das-barreiras. I also observed Milhafre-real, Guarda-rios-comum, Pica-pau-mediano, Papa-figos and at least 20 Socó-taquari. I was told there is also Poupa but I didn't see it. I was only there for 3.5 hours, and in the less interesting month of July. During bird migration the lake should also be interesting to check out. Other birds you can encounter include Chapim-rabilongo, Pintassilgo, Pica-pau-malhado-grande, Pica-pau-verde, peneireiro-de-dorso-malhado / peneireiro, Milhafre-preto, rouxinol-dos-caniços, Rouxinol-comum and Garça-branca-pequena.

Français: C’est une ancienne carrière de granulats de 14 ha, située dans une boucle du Cher, à Saint-Amand-Montrond où la nature a repris ses droits. Un sentier de 4km en fait le tour, avec une ripisylve très développée et une gestion raisonnée des berges. Classé, en partie, en zone Natura 2000, avec le Cher tout proche, c’est un écrin de nature très intéressant : loutres, castors, guêpiers d’Europe, hirondelles de rivage, héronnière….à découvrir au fil des saisons. Le peuplier noir, espèce emblématique des forêts alluviales y est bien implanté. Tout au long du sentier, une vingtaine de panneaux pédagogiques permet de découvrir la richesse naturaliste de cet espace.

Acesso
Lac de Virlay is very easy to reach. The best option is the large parking lot on Chemin de Virlain. Press P on the map for directions to the parking. There's also a good paid Park4night for campervans (regular parking is up to 2 meters). There's a terrace, two bakeries nearby, children's activities and pedalos. For birds, go left at the lake, and for recreation, go right :-)
Allow at least 3 hours to explore the lake. 4 to 5 hours is better. I actually think you can spend 1-2 days there and really explore a lot, because further along is the Abbey of Noirlac. If you go in the morning, you'll see foxes, deer, beavers, water voles, a sea of rabbits, and maybe even an otter. There are also bats, probably some rare ones. I'll post them on observation.org, along with the sounds.
