Saare study trail (1 km)
Lääne County, Silma Nature Reserve
The most striking feature in Silma Nature Reserve is the reed beds. The Sutlepa Sea is a relict lake separated from the sea as a result of post-glacial rebound and its shores are hemmed with wide expanses of reeds. Here you can listen to the song of great reed warbler, the incessant reeling of Savi’s warbler, and the call of the Eurasian bittern, which resembles the sound of blowing in a bottle.
