Description

The Ordacsehi Berek area consists largely of marshland, but the walk leads mainly through sandy grassland where you may encounter Hantmadár, rozsdás csuk and sárga billegető. There are shallow pools where Cigányréce and Tőkés réce swim. A section of the path is also flooded, and wading bird species such as Tavi cankó and Szürke cankó are often found here. There is also a small Gyurgyalag colony. Other birds you can see include: Rétisas, Kis kárókatona, Nádirigó, cserregő nádiposzáta, Búbos banka, Vörös gém, Nagy kócsag, Szürke gém, Egerészölyv, and Barna rétihéja.
