Description
The Duvenseer Moor is a broad, quiet moorland shaped by the slow infilling of post‑glacial lakes after the last Ice Age. Over the centuries the lakes silted up, peat accumulated, and by the nineteenth century the area was drained and cut for peat, leaving the lowered, open moorland that survives now. In winter the flooded areas serve as a resting and feeding area for many birds. Birds you can observe include Ασπρομέτωπη Χήνα, Νανόκυκνος, Αγριόκυκνος, Βαρβάρα, (Ευρωπαϊκή) Σαρσέλα, Ψαλίδα (του Βορά), (Ευρωπαϊκό) Κιρκίρι, Γκισάρι, (Ευρωπαϊκός) Κούκος, (Ευρωπαϊκός) Γερανός, (Ευρωπαϊκή) Καλημάνα, (Ευρασιατική) Τουρλίδα, Μαχητής, (Κοινό) Μπεκατσίνι, Χειμωνόκιρκος, Καλαμόκιρκος, (Ευρωπαϊκός) Θαλασσαετός, Δεντρογέρακο, Αετομάχος, Μουστακαλής, Σχοινοποταμίδα, (Κοινό) Αηδόνι, (Κοινός) Πύρρουλας, (Κοινό) Λούγαρο and Χρυσοτσίχλονο.
