Beschreibung
CEGB Reservoir or Teardrop Lake is a former brick pit. At one time it had a muddy shoreline and a large reedbed, nowadays the water is much deeper so diving birds and terns on passage and a large gull (Laridae) roost are the main targets for the at times numerous birdwatchers.
(1). Be sure to check this area, a Hausrotschwanz was found in the car park here in the Winter of 2004 - 2005.
(2). South Shore, with the whole reservoir surrounded by a tarmac path, from here with the sun behind you, you can see the whole area of water (NOTE a telescope is essential).
(3). North End, diving species such as Trauerente, Eistaucher and Sterntaucher tend to favour this end, don't forget to check waterside vegetation for Rohrammer and Seidensänger. Also in Summer Teichrohrsänger and Schilfrohrsänger.
(4). South East shore, a favourite spot for geese, a Bläßgans was found in the past, but more usual today are Nilgans and small numbers of Weißwangengans. Gebirgsstelze favour this area and waders such as Rotschenkel, Flußuferläufer and Waldwasserläufer occasionally drop in.
