Description
Lake Almyros is one of the most important wetlands of western Crete. In the lake you can find many aquatic birds. The lake is not only worth a visit for waterfowl. In Georgioupoulis I found the largest Деревенская ласточка roost I have seen so far! Among the other birds you can encounter are Большой улит, Фифи, Бекас, Перевозчик, Черныш, Обыкновенный зимородок, Белобрюхий стриж, Малая белая цапля, Средиземноморская чайка, Черноголовый щегол, Итальянский воробей and Соловьиная широкохвостка.
