Agia Paraskevi area. It is located at the western parts of the Messa wetland, in the Agia Paraskevi region, right at the conjunction of the main road towards Achladeri and Polychnitos.
It is formed by the torrent Kalami as it becomes blocked by the coastline and, in contrast to most of the wetland area, it is formed by freshwater.
Only the parts of the estuary retain water through the summer months, in most years.
Flamingos, Shelducks, Mallards, Coots, Green Sandpipers, Kingfisher, etc. were recorded there, a few days ago.
It is an excellent site to observe migrating waders, herons, and waterfowl during the spring passage – that has already started!
This wetland is a breeding area for the Little Ringed Plover, Coot, Water Rail, Mallard, Black-winged Stilt, Zitting Cisticola, the Eastern Speadfoot, Levant Water Frog, and several species of Damselflies and Dragonflies.
