Descrizione
One of the only decent places in Holzgerlingen for birding, the Holzgerlinger Wald is a forest situated in the north of the town, yet a reasonable distance from even central Holzgerlingen. Unlike other locations in the town, the forest is not very built up, and can be quite empty (as in no people!) at times.
There are many paths through the forest, so you can choose how to explore it. At times the main paths can feel lifeless when all birds go silent, but there are plenty of forest birds to be found even if they aren't singing. Picchio rosso maggiore are surprisingly common, but don't pass off all woodpeckers as Picchio rosso maggiore. Picchio rosso mezzano, Picchio nero, and Picchio verde can also be found here. Cinciallegra and Cinciarella are very abundant, and Cincia bigia, Cincia mora, Codibugnolo, and Cincia dal ciuffo are also present. Other forest birds include Regolo, Picchio muratore, Rampichino comune, Capinera, Luì piccolo, Scricciolo, Pettirosso, Frosone, and Lucherino. Some of these are only or more likely to be seen in Winter/Autumn or Spring/Summer.
I've found that some of the best birding areas in the forest oftentimes aren't the paths themselves but the destinations along the paths. The Feuchtbiotop Wiedorfer Wiese, a tiny pond near the West Holzgerlingen glade (and marked on the map), is one example. It is sometimes home to Gallinella d'acqua, Germano reale, Airone cenerino, Picchio verde, Cincia bigia, and so on. The East Holzgerlingen glade, or Schönaich glade (also marked on the map) is even bigger than the West Holzgerlingen glade, and is home to Airone cenerino, Picchio rosso maggiore, Picchio verde, Poiana, Ghiandaia, and at least in the wintertime, around the fruiting trees and evergreen perimeters of the glade, Tordela, Cesena, and Tordo sassello. The surrounding forest holds Corvo imperiale, Frosone, Cincia bigia, and more. The unusual diversity of birds (especially in Winter) as well as the hill whereupon the fruiting trees rest may draw some similarities to an alpine habitat.
Remember to please submit any sightings to the eBird Hotspot, linked below in the "Links" section, to grow the data.
Dettagli
Accesso
In the northwest of Holzgerlingen, drive to Weihdorfer Straße and turn into the Parkplatz am Parkfriedhof parking lot, where you will be greeted by a couple of small wooden bird statues near the entrance to the forest. It is important that you follow this wooden bird statue path and not the other path to the left, as that path will only lead you to a cemetery. Press P on the map for directions to the parking. There are many paths in the forest, don't get lost!
You can also enter in other areas, even in Schönaich and Böblingen, though whether this still technically counts as the Holzgerlinger Wald (despite being part of the same forest patch!) is up for debate. The route is best traveled on foot, though much of it can be cycled. You will miss birds if you cycle, however.
You can turn back at any time, there is no goal when entering. In Winter when the trees are fruiting you may wish to make your way towards the East Holzgerlingen glade to try your luck at finding Tordela, Cesena, or Tordo sassello.
The path marked on the map includes a full loop around the West Holzgerlingen glade, including the Feuchtbiotop Wiedorfer Wiese, as well as a route to the East Holzgerlingen glade.
