Among the ducks you can expect are kačica chripľavka, kačica lyžičiarka, kačica hvizdárka, kačica divá, kačica ostrochvostá, chochlačka sivá, chochlačka bielooká and chochlačka vrkočatá. In spring you can find warblers like svrčiak slávikovitý, svrčiak riečny, trsteniarik veľký, trsteniarik obyčajný and trsteniarik bahenný. And this is also one of the best spots for rybárik riečny.
