Beskrivning
The Divor reservoir and its surroundings are great for bird watching. Much of the area is underexplored. The main observation point on the north side is the dam, which allows observing the waters of the reservoir. But as this dam is quite busy with sportsmen and fishermen, the disturbance can be high, so the number of birds present is not always high. So it is also good to explore the other side of the reservoir. On the lake and around the margins you can see ducks, grebes, större flamingo, herons and waders lake drillsnäppa and gluttsnäppa.
In the surrounding areas many birds can be seen. For example häcksparv, kornsparv, skatgök, biätare, Härfågel, iberisk varfågel/ökenvarfågel, lagerlärka, tofslärka, sånglärka, grässångare, polyglottsångare and sammetshätta. Also many birds of prey can be seen flying over the area. In summer you have a good chance on Brun glada, dvärgörn and gåsgam. In winter blå kärrhök, röd glada and svartvingad glada. All year round you can see ormvråk, brun kärrhök and tornfalk. ängshök can bee seen mostly in August.
