Over 200 bird species have been recorded on the park, including notable winter visitors such as Smient, Grote Zaagbek, Kramsvogel, Koperwiek and Roerdomp. In the warmer months 12 species of warbler have been recorded along with Boerenzwaluw, Gierzwaluw, Oeverzwaluw, Visdief and Boomvalk.

Visitors to the country park can witness much of this wildlife in the Reedbed Nature Reserve which can be found at the north end of the park. The reserve includes four bird hides and a bird feeding station, all of which provide a great place to observe wildlife and enjoy the tranquillity of the countryside.
