  • Red-knobbed Coot or Crested Coot (Fulica cristata)<br />
CAPTIVE, ENDANGERED SPECIES.<br />
Cañada de los Pájaros Reserve where they have a breeding program.<br />
near Doñana National & Natural Park. Huelva Province, Andalusia. SPAIN<br />
The marshlands in particular are a very important area for the migration, breeding and wintering of European and African birds. It is also an area of old cultures, traditions and human uses - most of which are still in existance.
