Descrição

At high tide (check the tide table, see the link below) in the Mokbaai many different species of birds will gather on the higher parts of the area and can be quite numerous, especially in times of migration. Maçarico-real, Fuselo, Tarambola-dourada, Colhereiro and Pilrito-comum can hardly be missed. In winter, many ducks like Piadeira, Frisada, Arrabio and Eider-edredão are abundant, while falcão-peregrino can be found disturbing the scene. Seixoeira and Pilrito-de-bico-comprido may be found on the mudflats and the reed beds in the southwest corner are home to Chapim-de-bigode, Pisco-de-peito-azul, Escrevedeira-dos-caniços and rouxinol-dos-caniços. You can be lucky to find a Garça-branca-pequena or even a Garça-branca-grande, but the place is also known for rarities, like Gaivota-de-cabeça-preta (spring), Gaivina-de-bico-vermelho (summer) and is often visited by Águia-pesqueira (migration).

_________________________

Nederlands: De Mokbaai is een landinwaarts gelegen kwelder met hogere en lagere delen. De hogere delen hebben vegetatie en riet, de lagere delen hebben schelpenbanken. Bij vloed (zie link naar getijdentabel beneden) verzamelen zich in de Mokbaai veel verschillende soorten vogels op de hogere delen van het gebied en kunnen ze behoorlijk talrijk zijn, vooral in tijden van trek. Maçarico-real, Fuselo, Tarambola-dourada, Colhereiro en Pilrito-comum zijn vaak te zien. In de winter zijn er veel eenden zoals Piadeira, Frisada, Arrabio en Eider-edredão, terwijl falcão-peregrino het tafereel kan verstoren. Op het wad zijn Seixoeira en Pilrito-de-bico-comprido te vinden en in de rietvelden in de zuidwestelijke hoek leven Chapim-de-bigode, Pisco-de-peito-azul, Escrevedeira-dos-caniços en rouxinol-dos-caniços. Je kunt geluk hebben om een Garça-branca-pequena of zelfs een Garça-branca-grande te vinden, maar de plek staat ook bekend om zeldzaamheden, zoals Gaivota-de-cabeça-preta (lente), Gaivina-de-bico-vermelho (zomer) en wordt vaak bezocht door Águia-pesqueira (tijdens de trek).

Detalhes

Acesso

You can drive, walk or cycle around the Mokbaai, but from the road, the north side is hidden behind dunes. The south/south-western side is open and offers great views on the groups of birds on the mudflats, while the scrubs behind you may offer a concert of singing birds in spring, like Rouxinol-comum, Papa-amoras-comum, papa-amoras-cinzento , Ferreirinha-comum and many more. If you're lucky, you will find a singing Pisco-de-peito-azul.

De zuid/zuidwest kant is open en biedt een prachtig uitzicht op de groepen vogels op het wad, terwijl het struikgewas achter je in het voorjaar een concert van zingende vogels kan bieden, zoals Rouxinol-comum, Papa-amoras-comum, papa-amoras-cinzento , Ferreirinha-comum en nog veel meer. Als je geluk hebt, vind je een zingende Pisco-de-peito-azul.

Informação extra

The road around the bay leads to a military camp, so there may be some cars passing by, sometimes with high speed to catch the ferry. Please don't stand still on the road. The roadsides are broad and strong enough.

_________________________

Nederlands: De weg rond de baai leidt naar een militair kamp, dus er kunnen wat auto's langskomen, soms met hoge snelheid om de veerboot te halen. Blijf alsjeblieft niet stilstaan midden op de weg. De bermen zijn breed en sterk genoeg.
