Description

Kompostieranlage Geismar is a composting facility located directly next to Bundesstrasse 253. It can be accessed either from Frankenberg or from the other direction, from Geismar. Once people have left the site at 4:00 PM, the birds take over and search for anything of value. If one bird catches something, the others try to steal it. The main species found here are Riđa lunja , Gavran , Vrana, and Crna lunja. The area is an open, hilly landscape bordering a coniferous forest. The Heimbach stream attracts smaller songbirds such as Bela pliska , Dugorepa senica , and Obični kos.
