The lake is great for birdwatching. It is a very important resting place for migratory shorebirds. And a very important wintering side for water birds. You will be able to see swans here only in winter. Even individual flamingos have repeatedly spent some time at this lake.
Unfortunately, the water surface declines, as the canals are blocked.
