Description
The Lammershagener Teiche are a complex of several ponds. An area well-developed with paths, allowing one to often get close to the birds. The adjacent old estate forests are rich in birds of prey such as White-tailed Eagle, Red Kite, and Eurasian Hobby. The ponds are interesting for ducks like Northern Shoveler, Eurasian Teal, Garganey, and also Little Grebe. The reed beds are equally interesting with Western Marsh Harrier, Great Reed Warbler, Sedge Warbler and Bluethroat. Also Great Bittern has been observed.
The area is particularly rich in birds during the breeding and migration season. In winter, the water is drained for a while. Then, Green Sandpiper and Common Sandpiper can be observed. When there is water in the ponds, Whooper Swan, Smew and Goosander can be observed in winter.
The old forests with their ancient oak trees are rich in small birds at any time of year. You can find Middle Spotted Woodpecker, Black Woodpecker, Eurasian Green Woodpecker, Hawfinch and Long-tailed Tit.
