Description

Little Bittern regularly bred, Great Bittern regularly winters. This is also the first breeding place of Common Goldeneye in the Paris area. Great Reed Warbler also regularly breeds here.

In spring, might be interesting for Black Tern and Whiskered Tern (White-winged Tern has been reported). Used to be more interesting, less birds these last years, but may still reveal surprises.
