Description
In winter there are thousands of ducks and Lebădă de iarnă at RSPB Ouse Washes. It's a magical spectacle. Nagâț, Fluierar cu picioare roșii and Becațină comună breed in spring and the area attracts good passage migrants in spring and autumn. Cocor are often seen year round and gather from autumn in flocks of nearly 100 if you're lucky to see them. It's out the way so usually quiet with minimal disturbance. Other birds that can be observed are Fluierar negru, Fugaci de țărm, Ploier auriu, Erete de stuf, Sitar de mal, Rață cârâitoare and Lebădă mică and a great variety of ducks.
