Beschreibung
Drumpellier Country Park offers a diverse mix of habitats, including woodlands, wetlands, open water, and grasslands, making it a fantastic birdwatching spot year-round. The park’s lochs and marshes attract Höckerschwan, Zwergtaucher, Bläßhuhn and Reiherente, while reedbeds provide a home for Schilfrohrsänger and Rohrammer in spring and summer. Haubentaucher can often be seen performing their courtship displays.
Woodlands around the park are alive with Buntspecht, Waldbaumläufer, and Schwanzmeise. In winter, flocks of Rotdrossel and Wacholderdrossel arrive, while the occasional Mäusebussard or Sperber can be spotted overhead.
With scenic trails and a variety of bird species, Drumpellier is a perfect spot for both beginners and experienced birdwatchers.
