Lichk Reserve

Lichk Reserve is a pair of small lakes fed by a river and has a high concentration of water and wetland dependent birds. Covered with dense stands of aquatic vegetation, Lichk offers excellent opportunities to many water- and shorebirds as a breeding, foraging and stopover site. Coots and divers such as Common and Red-crested Pochards breed here. A good number of herons, egrets, cormorants and waders such as Common Snipe and Great Sandpiper are regular visitors, while most of them stay into winter.
