The Carmague, a regional park south of Arles is known for its abundance of birds and other wildlife including flamingos and white horses.
In Arles, the Rhône splits in two and between the two branches, in the area close to the sea, there are abundant salt marshes.
At the Ornithological Park within the Carmague, a series of paths with observation points loop around several large marsh areas. This was our destination today.
We saw numerous white horses, tall and sleek, in marshes off the sides of the road but there were no pullover areas so no photos. We did, however, get loads of photos of flamingos as we walked around the marshes in the park.
