Ashen cranes in Médoc Atlantique

Where do they come from?

Every year in autumn, the grey cranes leave the plains of Northern and Eastern Europe and migrate several thousand kilometres through Southern Europe to North Africa.
During this long journey, they usually take a break at our destination, much to our delight!

Where to observe them and when?

It is possible to observe them at sunrise as well as at sunset, between November and December, at the Cousseau pond in Lacanau.
Our tip for recognising them: they fly with their necks and legs outstretched!
