Description
On the way to my holiday destination I ended up at the Rothsee in Bavaria. Near the A9. You can park close by. The lake is divided into two parts with a piece of nature reserve. In this area you can find a large colony of volavka popelavá. Other birds you can see around the Rothsee are vrabec polní, volavka popelavá, rehek domácí, sýkora babka, drozd brávník, ťuhýk obecný, datel černý, sýkora koňadra, budníček menší, pěnkava obecná, luňák hnědý and strnad obecný.
On the southern shore of the second part there is an information pavilion of the State Association for Bird Protection (LBV). In summer and winter, in spring and autumn, interested visitors can now get tips and information. Various display boards provide information.
The Rothsee is one of the better places in the area for resting water birds in winter (up to 3000 in October / November), including often rarer species ( polák kaholka, turpan hnědý and divers). Plus, almost anything can pop up during the migratory season - when the water level is low and the mud banks are exposed, waders find perfect conditions. In recent years, the Rothsee has attracted a huge list of rarities, notably terns (annual rybák velkozobý and rybák dlouhoocasý , but extremely rare species such as the rybák oranžovozobý are also observed) and waders ( jespák mořský, jespák rezavý and others).
