Description
The Allmendäcker is a protected area that is completely fenced in. The area can be observed well from an elevated path on both sides. Birds seen here regularly include European Stonechat, Stock Dove, Linnet, Yellowhammer and Reed Bunting. In late spring / summer, there is a good chance of seeing Red-backed Shrike and European Turtle Dove. Sand Martin have a nesting colony nearby and can also usually be seen.
In winter, there is a good chance of seeing small flocks of Lesser Redpoll feeding in the birch trees on the fringes. As a safe haven, this site is used as an irregular stopver by a number migrating birds. Highlights over the recent years include Northern Lapwing, Eurasian Curlew, Northern Wheatear, Tawny Pipit and Whinchat.
