Descripción
There are many islands on the Lake Aktaş wetland. All of them are stiuated in Turkey. The lake is located at high elevation and it is a freswater lake. The landscape is beautiful with mountain grassland on this Caucasus hotspot. This lake was a breeding area of Negrón especulado. Also, it is still an important breeding area for Pelícano Ceñudo and Pelícano Común in Turkey. You can see breeding colonies of Pelícano Ceñudo and Pelícano Común which have been restricted to several wetlands in Turkey. If you lucky, you can see Negrón especulado in the lake which is accepted an ex-breeding area of the species. A new record of Negrón especulado will be important in terms of conservation.
