Description

A fast flowing stretch of the Ourthe. A reliable place for White-throated Dipper. And beavers. Features also many other common forest species of the Ardennes including tits (Willow Tit, Marsh Tit, Coal Tit). Although nearby Eurasian Treecreeper is common, here I only had Short-toed Treecreeper. In spring try your luck with Wood Warbler.
