The wet meadows of Marnay are located at the mouth of the Grosne and the Saône. A large pond in the middle of the meadow attracts many birds.
Prairies de Marnay is one of the largest ornithological sites in Burgundy to observe birds on a migratory stopover. During the migration period you can observe most species of wetland birds from Western Europe such as Šiljkan, Kašičar, Šarena utva, Mala carska šljuka, Crna roda or the Velika čigra. During the nesting period Bela roda is common as well as Čaplja govedarka but also grassland birds like Obična travarka. The site also attracts rare birds such as Sultanka in summer.
