Description
In spring, water level can be high especially if the river Marne has overflowed during winter. Typical species at this time of year then include reglja and dolgorepa raca which can easily hide into the dense vegetation. Several pairs of prosnik and trstni strnad breed in the marsh and later in season it's also the case for močvirska trstnica. Even if water level is generally to high for waders on the main water body at this time of year, the adjacent flooded agricultural fields can host good numbers of them including some very rare in the Paris region such as the Temminckov prodnik.
In August-October water levels drop and waders, for example močvirski martinec, are then visible on the main water body. In August-September a migrant ribji orel is often perched on one of the electric pylons.
