Description
Lake Volvi is the second largest lake in Greece and is 19 km long. Nice place for birding on the lakeshore of Lake Volvi is the Modi River Mouth. I spent 5 days there. As a rule, I was completely alone. The rare visitors usually only came for a few minutes. Photographing pelicans requires a bit of luck, as they often change their location on the large lake. A swarm of čebelar was passing through. čopasta čaplja are very present there and can be easily photographed from a short distance. Among the other birds that can be observed are bela štorklja, čopasti ponirek, kvakač, mala bela caplja, kostanjevka, pritlikavi kormoran and rjavi lunj.
