Description
Lake Jandari is a lake located partly in Georgia and Azerbaijan. The lake consists of shallow, silted areas and deeper water. The water level in the lake fluctuates throughout the year, creating interesting foraging areas for migrating waterfowl such as ducks and wading birds. Many migratory birds are present during spring and autumn, and various bird species winter on the lake.
Species present in spring and autumn include: Alaca Balikçil, Orman düdükçünü, Küçük Karabatak, Van gölü Martısı, Çıkrıkçın, Ala sığırcık, Kızıl kumkuşu and Sarıbağlı kuyruksallayan. In the reed collars you can find Büyük kamışçın and Küçük balaban. The lake is home to a colony of Bıyıklı Sumru and some pairs of Küçük sumru breed there. More rare species (for this country) that may be occasionally present are Tepeli pelikan, Bıyıklı Kamışçın and Gri başlı sazhorozu. Winter is good for several species of ducks.
