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 Rétisas, Vörös kánya, and Kabasólyom. The ponds are interesting for ducks like Kanalas réce, Csörgo réce, Böjti réce, and also Kis vöcsök. The reed beds are equally interesting with Barna rétihéja, Nádirigó, Foltos nádiposzáta and Kékbegy. Also Bölömbika 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, Erdei cankó and billegetőcankó can be observed. When there is water in the ponds, Énekes hattyú, Kis bukó and Nagy bukó 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 közép fakopáncs, Fekete harkály, Zöld küllo, Meggyvágó and őszapó.
