Description
The area provides good possibilities to see steppe birds such as Calandra Lark and Greater Short-toed Lark, Stone-curlew, in some years - Rosy Starling. Long-legged Buzzard is a common bird there, while the Great Spotted Cuckoo, Saker Falcon or Imperial Eagle are a matter of chance. The stony quarries are places whrere Rock Sparrow is possible to be seen.

Access
The area is accessable from many sides and birds can be seen from the side of the asphalt roads or with short walks after parking the car at some of the numerous suitable places next to the roads. Some of the abandoned rock quarries also can be reached by car. At some places unpaved, but flat enough roads can be used, too.
