\u00abPantani della Sicilia Sud-Orientale\u00bb for two of the rarest and mostly endangered duck species at EU level, Marbled duck and Ferruginous duck.<\/p>\n<p>Project specific objectives, in decreasing degree of priority, can be identified as follows:<\/p>\n<ol class=\"bullets-green\">\n<li>Significantly increase breeding and wintering populations of Marbled duck (<em>Marmaronetta angustirostris<\/em>) thus creating suitable conditions to promote and bring to a final degree the colonization process of the area spontaneously undertaken by this species a few years ago<\/li>\n<li>Significantly increase breeding and wintering populations of Ferruginous duck (<em>Aythya nyroca<\/em>)<\/li>\n<li>Significantly increase breeding population of Purple swamp-hen (<em>Porphyryo porphyryo<\/em>)<\/li>\n<li>Significantly increase wintering population of Bittern (<em>Botaurus stellaris<\/em>)<\/li>\n<li>Increase number, range and availability of ecological valuable niches and suitable breeding sites for a number of bird species currently migrant, in particular Waders (5 species in Annex 1 of Birds Directive), Herons (7 species in Annex 1), Terns and Gulls (6 species in Annex 1)<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>&nbsp;<br \/>\n[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column offset=&#8221;vc_col-lg-3 vc_col-md-3&#8243;]<nav id=\"menu-duck-interno\" class=\"vcex-module
