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 lastovička obyčajná roost I have seen so far! Among the other birds you can encounter are kalužiak sivý, kalužiak močiarny, močiarnica mekotavá, kalužiačik malý, kalužiak perlavý, rybárik riečny, dážďovník skalný, beluša malá, čajka žltonohá, stehlík obyčajný, vrabec taliansky and cetia západná.
