Additionally many small round lakes can be found in the forest, originated from bombing of the second World War. the forest is inhabited by typical forest birds like Hawfinch. The lake is resting and breeding habitat for many common species ranging from Common Kingfisher, Great Cormorant to Tufted Duck.
