Description
The Trent Port area is flat and overlooks a number of fields and the River Trent. The River Trent is a good location for Polojka during passage, Mala bela čaplja and Vodomar. The surrounding fields and hedgerows have good numbers of Španska kamenjarka, Barska strnadica and Strnadica žutovoljka. 150 species have been recorded here including local scarcities such as Šumski zviždak, Batokljun, Sinji galeb and Crnovrata muharica whilst Mala šljuka and Veliki ronac are annual visitors. In winter the River Trent is prone to flooding the fields, which provide some additional ornithological interest. Species recorded during floods includes Plovka kašikara, Šiljkan, Riđoglava patka and Ćubasta patka.
