Beschreibung
This reserve on the River Yare has a mix of wetlands, woodlands and meadows, with great birding all year round. Spring is the best time to see Seidensänger, Schilfrohrsänger, Feldschwirl and Kuckuck, as well as hearing the booming call of the resident Rohrdommel and seeing the display flights of the Rohrweihe. During summer, you might spot a hunting Baumfalke or Schleiereule, and the resident Eisvogel are most active in the warmer months. In autumn, Fischadler are regular on passage and Bartmeise flock together, as do thousands of Star. Winter brings peak wildfowl numbers and more Rohrdommel from the continent, plus large flocks of Erlenzeisig and Alpenbirkenzeisig, occasionally hosting a rarer finch species. The harrier roost also reaches its peak, sometimes including Kornweihe. The reserve also has resident Chinese water deer and otters.
