As we already noted that first waders were back, in this context it is noteworthy that continues a shy but interesting migratory flow.

Black-headed gull

Apart from the mentioned species, during these days there have been seen several groups of black kites, a Western marsh harrier that has decided to rest for some days at the marsh, small groups of dunlins and eurasian curlews and whimbrels among others.

The most remarkable species due to its number and its striking flight over the marsh from its resting areas towards feeding areas is the black-headed gull, which is offering these days rewarding moments of observation.
