Beskrivning

Parque da Pasteleira is a small city park, with around 7 hectares. It preserves some of the last remains of the pine forest that used to cover the area. Most of the park is located in a sloped area, which is mainly covered by pine and oak forest. On the lower part of the park there is a lake surrounded by gardens and a couple of grassy areas. When birding in this spot, the two main areas of interest should be the lake and the forested areas.

Although not big, the lake attracts some species of ducks such as gräsand, nilgås and Skedand. It is also a gathering place for gulls, mainly medelhavstrut and silltrut. The margins should be scouted for kungsfiskare, drillsnäppa, gråhäger and Silkeshäger. During spring and summer, swallows and swifts can be found feeding over the lake. Some of the most common species are tornseglare, ladusvala and klippsvala(which is present all year round).

svartstare, ringduva, turkduva, Skata and svartkråka can be seen in or around the surrounding grass patches. The pine and oak forest is home to a large diversity of species. The illusive Gröngöling and större hackspett are most often heard than seen. The nötskrika is quite common in the area, just like other typical forest species like trädgårdsträdkrypare, bofink, svartmes and talgoxe.
