Beschrijving
This small but very special nature reserve offers birders the chance to see a wealth of reedbed specialists, as well as a brilliant variety of invertebrates including Swallowtail Butterfly and Norfolk Hawker Dragonfly.
In the winter, look out for Kerkuil quartering the reedbed on cold, still evenings. The woodland holds Glanskop, Goudvink and other common garden birds. You will likely see Bruine Kiekendief around the reserve too. In the spring, listen out for the iconic sounds of Koekoek as well as a whole host of warblers including Cetti's Zanger, Rietzanger, Kleine Karekiet, Sprinkhaanzanger and Fitis.
In summer and autumn, you may encounter roaming flocks of Baardman in the reeds, while Boomvalk will be hawking for dragonflies overhead. This is a very peaceful reserve, especially in early mornings and evenings, so is a fantastic place to get your dose of nature therapy.
