There are few lakes in Corsica and today, we investigated the largest, the Etang de Biguglia, which is south of Bastia. It is not easy to see the lake from the coast road because of the density of the reeds and the difficulty of parking. From the road, we had views of this Common Kestrel perched on a lamp post and close enough to see its black claws.
