 Feathers,
shapes, a blur of colour... Birds are everywhere on the Picardy
Coast.
From cliffs to sandy beaches, from tidal reservoirs to ponds,
three hundred different species frequent our coastline: learn
about them and observe them in their natural surroundings.
Outside, stroll around the pond, walk alongside the wet fields
and reedbeds lined with plants and marshes.
|
An unusual collection of objects,
whose raw material is the feather, is on display from
the ladies of the Belle Époque.
From the observation post, observe
the lake and its feathered guests undisturbed: teals,
shovelers…

Introductory trail
" The flora and birds of the marshes "
Outside, walk around the pond, passing alongside the wet
fields and reedbeds, lined with colourful combinations of
flowering plants.
Birds
of prey in flight
 Take
a seat around the flying area and watch the buzzards, falcons,
eagles and vultures circling overhead - don't worry, they won't
land on you!!!
Listen to the calls of the owls, applaud the dexterity of
the osprey and the secretary bird!
The display of birds of prey in flight will make you aware
of their importance in our ecosystem.
