The site of the Foraine d'Authie is made up of a series of bodies of water resulting from the exploitation of old ridges of pebbles. This former quarry, in the process of being recolonized by the natural environment, has been the subject of recent developments for ornithological purposes (islets, mudflats, etc.), associated with the grazing of all the meadows. These allow a large public to enjoy the discovery of the site and to admire the Spoonbills, Cormorants, Mediterranean Gulls, Avocets, Mergansers, etc., which occupy this natural space.
