Description
A mosaic of water, reed, swamp groves and grasslands in the excavated peat. That is De Deelen, in the heart of the province of Friesland. In autumn and winter, thousands of ducks and geese, including Brunnakke, Tundragås, Skjeand and Hvitkinngås come to De Deelen. Rare species such as Svartterne, Purpurhegre and Sivhauk also live in the area. If you listen carefully, you may be able to hear the Gresshoppesanger singing in the spring. Other birds you can see here are Grågås, Skjestork, Blåstrupe, Storspove, Stokkand, Toppand, Taffeland, Toppdykker, Musvåk, Kanadagås, Sivspurv and Makrellterne.
