At the Hagenburger canal you can see many ducks in winter and autumn. Especially at the point where the canal floats into the Steinhuder Meer. Among the ducks you can expect are kopřivka obecná, lžičák pestrý, hvízdák eurasijský, kachna divoká, ostralka štíhlá, polák velký, polák malý and polák chocholačka. In spring you can find warblers like cvrčilka slavíková, cvrčilka říční, rákosník velký, rákosník zpěvný and rákosník obecný. And this is also one of the best spots for ledňáček říční. You can find many songbirds like čížek lesní, drozd zpěvný, lejsek černohlavý, slavík modráček and strnad rákosní.
At the mouth of the canal you can find especially in May some other waterbirds like rybák černý, rybák obecný and with some luck rarities like rybák severní ,rybák velkozobý or rybák bahenní.
