Description

Just east of Mesotopos, a small drinking fountain near a lay-over is located. The fountain itself isn't very spectacular, but the surrounding wooded area is a small migrant trap during spring migration. After parking your car (see map), you can enter a small field with trees. During migration, everything can show up here, like flycatchers, redstarts, Grangur, and many species of warblers.
