Description

The Rilshaw Meadows is a small public park bordering the Flash and River where large number of gulls gather at all times of the year (Pescăruș sur, Pescăruș argintiu, Pescăruș negricios, etc.) The little forest along the river has breeding Ciocănitoare pestriță mare, Ochiuboului, Măcăleandru and other woodland species).
