Ocaña Salt Marsh (1 Viewer)

IMG_9756.JPG
Taking advantage of my visit to Aranjuez I went to the nearby Salobral de Ocaña. This temporary little marsh produce salt crusts. There is not special birds or animals. However this is a protected area for the variety and rarity of halophytes present as sea-lavender, statice, marsh-rosemarye and arbardine. Apart from the odd scenic beauty of the place. Despite I did not expect to see much wildlife I saw footprints in the mud what with this excrements in a prominent place reminded me a fox. A marsh harrier caused the cawing of a pair of crows. Each time a group of frightened partridges up impossible to see between plants flew up.
