Descrição

This sheltered inlet is an internationally important wetland site for wildlife. Roughly half of the reserve is intertidal saltmarsh and mudflats, with the remainder of the reserve consisting of farmland, copses, lagoons, reedbeds and shingle beaches. You can see birds like Ganso-de-faces-negras, Arrabio, Andorinha-do-mar-anã, Maçarico-de-bico-direito and Garça-branca-pequena. In winter large numbers of Ganso-de-faces-negras, Abibe-comum and Maçarico-de-bico-direito use the harbour or surrounding fields, with a supporting cast which includes Tarambola-cinzenta, Tarambola-dourada and Pilrito-comum. Mergulhão-de-pescoço-castanho are seen offshore and Merganso-de-poupa in the harbour. Waders and wildfowl linger well into spring, including Maçarico-real, Tarambola-cinzenta, Fuselo and Maçarico-de-bico-direito, Pilrito-comum, Arrabio, Piadeira, Marrequinha-comum and Ganso-de-faces-negras. Smaller migrants arrive, such as Felosa-dos-juncos, rouxinol-dos-caniços and Felosa-musical, Toutinegra-de-barrette-preto and Felosa-comum sing in the bushes and Chasco-cinzento hop about the beach. In summer Andorinha-do-mar-anã and Andorinha-do-mar-comum can be seen fishing in the harbour.
