Description

The Prairie de Verjux is an agricultural plain which mixes grazed meadows, hay meadows and crops. One can observe typical species such as veliki škurh, repaljščica, veliki strnad and rumena pastirica. In the spring it is a hunting area for the močvirski lunj which nests in arable crops. One can regularly observe the rjavi lunj and more rarely the kosec. In winter the wastelands are dormitories for pepelasti lunj and močvirska uharica. Access to the gravel pit on this site is prohibited, however from the outside you can see a beautiful colony of mestna lastovka.
