Descripción
The Elfrather See is a lake that is mostly interesting in winter for wintering waterfowl, mainly diving ducks such as Porrón Moñudo, Porrón Europeo and others. Also Serreta Grande can be seen quite reliably in winter. In the winter 2021 / 2022 Pato Havelda spent several weeks on the lake. There are many trees and hedges around the lake, which contain a wide variety of common song birds. The main attraction are the winter waterfowl, though.
