Among the birds you can see here are Nil kazi, Kaşıkgaga, Fiyu, Tepeli patka, Büyük tarakdiş, Küçük batağan, Bahri, Kumru, Karabatak, Balaban, Gri balýkçýl, Büyük ak balýkçýl, Sığır balıkçılı, Balık kartalı, Arı Şahini, Saz delicesi, Gökçe delice, Atmaca, Kara çaylak, Şahin, Kukumav, Yalıçapkını, Orman alaca ağaçkakanı, Kara ağaçkakan, Kerkenez, Sarıasma, Alakarga, Leş kargası, Çam baştankarası, Mavi Baştankara, Büyük baþtankara, Çulhakuşu, Saz Kamışçını, Kum kırlangıcı, Kır kırlangıcı, Uzunkuyruklu baştankara, Sıvacı, Bahçe Tırmaşıkkuşu, Kızılgerdan, Bülbül, Ak kuyruksallayan, İspinoz, Florya and Bataklık kirazkuşu.
