Description
Limni Keri Bitumen Wells and Lake is a beautiful small marsh area situated along the coast of Limni Kiri. You can easily park your car and look out over the sea for a moment. When you start with a loop around the wetland during spring, you will immediately hear and see all sorts of birds. You will hear Büyük kamışçın singing right away, and you will encounter them scattered throughout the entire loop. In the shallow areas, waders such as Sarıbacaklı kumkuşu, Kızıl kumkuşu, Küçük kumkuşu and Dere düdükçünü forage. You will also see Alaca Balikçil scattered throughout the area, and if you look closely, Küçük balaban. Wagtails also forage at the edges. I spotted a Sarý kuyruksallayan and my first Black-headed wagtail. But be sure to keep an eye on the surroundings as well, because I saw Sarıasma and Kuzgun flying around. Çayır taşkuşu was also present everywhere in the area.
