Not too many sites could listed with such density. :)<br />I would be happy to see those records in our shorebird mapping database. ;)<br />Who should I contact in relation to get a short review of this success story?

The sludge beds (sewage lagoons) are constucted each year with islands left in the centre. The islands are safe breeding sites for the birds and the sludge beds are full of insects for feeding.
