Description
The Seudre estuary is home to a large portion of the population of the nanmetum subspecies of the Mavigerdan, which is endemic to the French Atlantic coast. With a bit of luck it can be observed here (other good spots are the Pointe de la Coubre, Marais de Brouage and RNMO). Some breeding birds of the Moulin des Loges reserve are Sarý kuyruksallayan, Kamış Bülbülü, Kır kırlangıcı, Uzunbacak and more.
Nearby Kaşıkçı and different heron species, such as Gece Balikçili are breeding, as well as Sumru. Besides from that you can observe Çıkrıkçın during spring migration, Çeltikçi, Saz delicesi, Yılan Kartalı, Döşüşkenkuş, Çamurçulluğu (keep your eyes open for the islandica subspecies), Su çulluğu and many more species (see the list below). The open landscape also allows good observations of migrating passerines, like Çayır taşkuşu, Kara sinekkapan or Kuyrukkakan. On the nearby fields you can observe Kızıl Keklik, Altın yağmurcun (only during winter), Kızkuşu and Tarla kirazkuşu. Note that in end of August the hunt for waders and ducks begins, which makes good observations harder.
