Description

Marismas de Alday have several pools of different sizes that serve as a refuge for migratory birds that rest in the Santander Bay area. Despite being a place surrounded by roads and shopping centers, it is possible to see rare species, which can range from Малая чайка to Кваква, or Чибис and Турухтан passing through. In addition, it is a breeding area for Ходулочник.

Pese a ser un lugar rodeado por carreteras y centros comerciales, es posible ver especies poco habituales, que pueden ir desde Малая чайка hasta Кваква, pasando por las Чибис y los Турухтан. Además, es una zona de cría de la Ходулочник.
