Description
The area is a secluded rural haven away from the nearby tourist areas with quiet lanes and tracks threading through local farmland that can be explored easily on foot. The best time time to visit is in the first few hours after sunrise when the birds are most active. Авдотка is present in the fields and orchards in the area. Красноголовый сорокопут are easy to see perched atop bushes and wires. Серая мухоловка ssp tyrrhenica can be found in wooded glades along many of the roads and tracks in the area and during migration they are joined by Серая мухоловка and Мухоловка-пеструшка. Other migrants include Луговой чекан and Обыкновенная горихвостка. Other birds that can be seen in the area include Удод, Иволга, Обыкновенная горлица, Короткоклювый хохлатый жаворонок, Малый жаворонок, Средиземноморская славка, Европейский вьюрок and Жёлтая трясогузка. Scan the hills to the south for Орёл-карлик. A circular route of 3 km is shown which should cover most of the species, but the wider area is well worth exploration.
