Description
Despite its small size La Marjal dels Moros is home to some large bird populations of several species, including seriously endangered species. One of the highlights in springtime are the flocks of different types of wading birds that come here to breed, including colonies of rybár riečny, rybár malý, prieložník stepný, čorík bahenný and šišila bocianovítá. There is also a large breeding population of hrdzavka potápavá, which is increasingly rare in Valencia. The kačka úzkozobá is another endangered species that breeds here, and the Marjal marks its northernmost location in Europe. In wintertime you can see large flocks of beluša malá and kačica lyžičiarka, as well as spectacular gatherings of kormorán veľký, and it is not uncommon to see plameniak ružový, beluša veľká or ibisovec hnedý. Other nice birds you can see include kaňa močiarna, potápka malá, sliepočka vodná, sultánka modrá and rybárik riečny.
