Description

The bay was formed during the filling of Novosibirsk Reservoir in 1957–1959.[1]

The right bank is high and covered mainly with pine forest. The left bank is more gently sloping, with arable land; in addition, copses and shrubs are also sometimes found here.[1]

During low-water period, especially in spring, the area of the reservoir decreases sharply.[1]

In the coastal zone and in shallow water there are many old ruins that attract illegal archaeologists with metal detectors.[1]

Fauna

Gulls, grey herons, ducks, Milvus migrans (on August 1, 1995, a gathering of 110–140 black kites was seen here).[1][2]
