Description

Burg Linn is popular with history enthusiasts and families alike. It's also ideal for bird photographers, as the birds are quite accustomed to people. The park is open year-round, except during the Flachsmarkt (traditional craft market) in May, when birdwatching is not possible. The park features open meadows where you can observe Pigeon ramier, Pigeon colombin, Corneille noire and Pie bavarde. There are designated dog-friendly meadows in the center of the park, as well as fenced pastures for cows and horses.

The park also boasts large ponds where you can often spot Canard colvert, Foulque macroule, Gallinule poule-d'eau, Ouette d'Égypte, Fuligule morillon and Cygne tuberculé. With a bit of luck you can also find Grèbe castagneux (they're often found in the nearby Greiffenhostpark when they're not in Burg Linn Park), and in winter also Sarcelle d'hiver can be spotted. Héron cendré is common.

Numerous songbird species can be found in bushes and trees, the most common being Mésange bleue, Mésange charbonnière, Rougegorge familier, Fauvette à tête noire, Pouillot véloce, Pinson des arbres, Chardonneret élégant, Étourneau sansonnet, Merle noir and Grive musicienne. When you are lucky you can spot Gobemouche gris or Gros-bec casse-noyaux.
