Traces of Winter Migration in İzmir İnciraltı: Kaşıkgaga Trio

Wildlife

İnciraltı Çakalburnu Lagoon, one of the most practical and rich stops in Izmir for birdwatchers, is an important break point for migratory surface ducks. This frame, which includes two male and a female Kaşıkgaga, which feeds on the microorganisms they filter from the water, is a proof of the safe ecosystem offered by the lagoon. This moment, combined with mirror reflections on the stagnant water surface, once again reveals the importance of protecting the urban biodiversity of Izmir.
