Description
The environmental variety of this floodplain gives scope for a wide variety of birds: large and small waders (eg, Kašičar and Žalar blatarić), dabblers, divers (eg, grebes), raptors, hirundines (eg, Seoska lasta and Crna čiopa) and songbirds (eg, Šivačica). There can be distant views of flocks of Ražanj and Bela roda nesting on power pylons.
Although industrial and residential development adds pressure, there remains enough wetland and woodland to support wildlife. See it while it lasts and support its survival.

Access
Most viewpoints are on public roads and are not especially indicated. Others are on private land and require owner's permission to access. Unless you're familiar with the area and have your own transport, it's recommended that you employ a guide or join a tour party. Public transport can get you to Alcochete from Lisbon, but not to the heart of the area and the widespread nature of the viewpoints require mobility.
