Description
The reservoir is shallow, having only a maximum depth of 9m (30’), which makes it very attractive to both dabbling and diving ducks. It occasionally attracts less common wildfowl, such as Harle bièvre and Macreuse noire and Grèbe jougris, Grèbe à cou noir and Grèbe esclavon. Waders are often present in spring and autumn, including Combattant varié, Chevalier culblanc, Bécassine des marais, Chevalier gambette, Huîtrier pie and Petit Gravelot. Scaling Dam can also be an excellent place to watch raptors and, from the hide, an eye should always be kept on the moorland plateau and valleys for Busard Saint-Martin, Busard des roseaux, Faucon émerillon and Faucon pèlerin and, if you are extremely lucky, Milan royal or Buse pattue. The site is also good for summer visitors, such as Coucou gris, Tarier des prés and Pouillot fitis, and residents like Tarier pâtre, Bergeronnette des ruisseaux and Moineau friquet.
There is a hide for birdwatching where you might see Vanneau huppé, Oie cendrée, Bernache du Canada, Cygne chanteur and many wading birds.
