During the migratory passages, you can also see other wintering birds such as blåhake, vattenpiplärka or Sävsparv. Other birds you can spot in the area are iberisk varfågel/ökenvarfågel, röd tigerfink, helenaastrild and Härfågel. Also many wintering birds of prey (sometimes in high densities) like brun kärrhök, blå kärrhök, röd glada, svartvingad glada, stenfalk and jorduggla. Best times for a visit are winter and spring, from November to May. From June to October it can be very quiet on the fields.
