In the Greater Scaup, the white extends into the primaries.

Similarly, the continental harvest of Greater Scaup was up by 29% to 83 899 birds in 2012.

The Greater Scaup is the larger of the two species and is widely distributed across Arctic and Subarctic regions.

In winter, more than 10,000 ducks such as mallard (Anas platyrhynchos) and greater scaup (Aythya marila) migrate to Hinuma to feed and roost.

Freshwater duck, tufted duck is rarely seen at sea, except during migrations.

The most abundant is the tufted duck, which immigrated to Iceland at the end of the 19th century.

The most abundant is the Tufted Duck, which immigrated to Iceland at the end of the 19th century.

You will be able to observe, in their natural environment, the tufted duck, the crested grebe on its floating nest moored with the reeds, as well as numerous passerines.

The Common Pochard, Aythya ferina, is a medium-sized diving duck.

There are threatened species such as the common pochard (Aythya ferina) and the North African fire salamander (Salamandra algira).

The wetland hosts two globally threatened species of birds, the European turtle dove Streptopelia turtu and the common pochard Aythya ferina.

To make the photographs of the two common pochard presented in the exhibition, I had to wait for three days in the middle of a pond so that they became familiar with my presence.

The Site is an important stopover for migrating birds and a breeding area for around 100 species including the globally threatened common pochard Aythya ferina.

Birds such as the ferruginous duck (Aythya nyroca) regularly feed in this area.

It shelters more than 203 waterbird species, including the ferruginous duck Aythya nyroca, the marbled teal Marmaronetta angustirostris and the white-headed duck Oxyura leucocephala.

Moreover, it is an important wintering and breeding ground for large numbers of herons and waterfowl such as the ferruginous duck (Aythya nyroca) and moustached warbler (Acrocephalus melanopogon).

In appropriate times white tailed Eagles catches fishes in the lake system, and several other species as Kingfisher, Ferruginous duck, Great crested grebe and White storks can be seen.

The lakes are the result of the operation of a gravel pit, and wet meadows and, each winter, over thirty species migratory (e.g. greylag goose, pochard, teal etc.) find shelter and cover here.
