Description
The mouth of the Riera de Ribes stream can be found at the end of the seafront in Sitges. The most interesting ornithological aspect of the site are the seabirds, with interesting species like Audouin's Gull, Mediterranean Gull, Sandwich Tern, European Shag, and Northern Gannet. Some rarer species that can be seen are the Cory's Shearwater, Yelkouan Shearwater and Balearic Shearwater. In winter Red-breasted Merganser has been seen several years.
In the reeds Cetti's Warbler, Reed Warbler, Common Waxbill, Reed Bunting, and Sardinian Warbler can be heard and seen. Aquatic species like Mallard, Little Egret, Cattle Egret, Grey Heron and Common Kingfisher are present in the water course.
Close to the mouth of Riera de Ribes is the Golf Club Terramar, and the greens are good to look for birds like European Stonechat, Meadow Pipit, Black Redstart, and Eurasian Hoopoe.
