Description

The area of the Gann estuary encompasses the shoreline and bay by the mouth of the Gann Pill (small river) and the Pickleridge Pools that lie just behind the sea wall. At the pools you can see birds like duplinska kozarka and mala bela caplja. Also ducks like zvonec, žvižgavka and kreheljc and sometimes srednji žagar, vodomec and Mokož. During migration many species of waders can be seen here too when it's high tide. The Gann and bay is the place for flocks of grivasta gos in winter, as well as small numbers of divers and grebes. Also gulls roost here and terns can be seen on migration.
