Durante los meses de Octubre y Noviembre, de manera habitual entre 5 y 10 ejemplares adultos de águilas pescadoras, se han avistado en este sector, especialmente en horas de la tarde cuando la marea sube, este sitio es rico en recursos pesqueros. Su presencia es acompañada por sus chillidos particulares. Luego de capturar los peces en aguas poco agitadas, se alimentan sobre altos árboles o en postes del alumbrado público del Puerto Marítimo de Esmeraldas.
