Brief_description
Only one count is available for this pan, from summer 1992, when 22 waterbird species were recorded, including good numbers of Dabchick, Yellowbilled Duck, Redknobbed Coot and Little Stint. On the basis of species richness and the overall number of birds counted, regular monitoring should be reinstated unless the habitat is only occasionally suitable for waterbirds. No threats have been identified.
