Barthes de l'Adour

The Barthes de l'Adour are vast wetlands interspersed with ditches and canals with rich and varied natural environments ranging from grazed or mowed meadows to the large oak forests of the Adour, 17 of which are targeted by Europe (oak groves and alder and alluvial oak groves, raised bogs, amphibious lawns, aquatic grasslands, megahorbaria, etc.). This mosaic of environments is home to a remarkable fauna and flora typical of wetlands, 47 of which are targeted by Europe (White Stork, European Cistude, Otter, Barbastelle, Marsh Copper, Sea Lamprey, Gomphe de Graslin, Four-leaved Marsilyn...).
