Description

Serra dels Galliners has such a diversity of habitats so close to large residential areas, that many birds choose this site as a refuge. You can see birds that are here throughout the year like šoja, črnoglavka, zelena žolna and veliki detel. Also raptors both day and night (kanja, navadna postovka, lesna sova) and it is also a good crossing point to see birds during migration time.
