Močvara Palud pravo je mjesto za ljubitelje<br />
prirode koji žele upoznati biljni i ptičji svijet<br />
podneblja u kojem provode odmor<br />
Palud swamp is the right place for nature lovers<br />
who want to get to know the flora and the birds<br />
of their holiday resort<br />
Ornitološki dragulj Istre<br />
Istrian Ornithological Gem<br />
Močvara Palud, ornitološki dragulj Istre, stanište mnogobrojnih vrsta<br />
ptica, nalazi se samo desetak kilometara od još jednoga istarskog<br />
dragulja, grada <strong>Rovinja</strong>. Bogat vodom i bujnom vegetacijom, Palud se<br />
posebno može dobro razgledati s vidikovca, ali isto tako i vozeći biciklo<br />
uređenim stazama. Koliko god puta posjetili ovaj ornitološki rezervat,<br />
uvijek ćete pronaći nešto novo jer Palud često mijenja svoja “lica”.<br />
Naime, za vrijeme najvišega vodostaja njegova površina iznosi oko 18<br />
ha, dok se u ljetnom periodu veći dio močvare isuši te površina iznosi<br />
oko 2 ha. Močvara je vrlo plitka, s najvećom izmjerenom relativnom<br />
dubinom od 125 cm, i na tom mjestu njezino je dno ispod površine<br />
mora.<br />
Palud swamp, Istrian ornithological gem, the habitat of many species<br />
of birds, is a mere ten kilometers away from another Istrian gem,<br />
Rovinj. Rich in water and lush vegetation, there is an especially good<br />
view of Palud from the belvedere, but also from the arranged bike<br />
route. No matter how many times you visit this ornithological reserve,<br />
you will always find something new, because Palud often changes its<br />
“face”. To be more specific, at maximum water level its area is about<br />
18 acres, while in summer most of the swamp dries out, so the area is<br />
about 2 acres. The swamp is very shallow, the greatest relative depth<br />
being 125 cm, and at that point its bottom is below the surface of the<br />
sea.<br />
