The site was identified as internationally important for bird conservation in 2006 because it was regularly supporting significant populations of the species listed below, meeting ('triggering') IBA criteria.
Populations meeting IBA criteria ('trigger species') at the site:Species | Red List | Season (year/s of estimate) | Size | IBA criteria |
---|---|---|---|---|
Common Goldeneye Bucephala clangula | LC | breeding (1998) | 200–400 birds | A4i |
Greater Spotted Eagle Clanga clanga | VU | breeding (1998) | 2–5 pairs | A1 |
Saker Falcon Falco cherrug | EN | passage (1993–1994) | 2–3 birds | A1 |
Yellow-breasted Bunting Emberiza aureola | CR | breeding (1998) | 1,000–2,000 birds | A1 |
Ideally the conservation status of the IBA will have been checked regularly since the site was first identified in 2006. The most recent assessment (2007) is shown below.
