Description

You can find a cvrčilka slavíková here resounding in the extensive reed beds. As well as listen to the singing of a strnad zahradní and a slavík obecný on the edge of the forest. If you are lucky, you may even notice an kalous ušatý flying silently over the local fields. The forest itself also hides many interesting species such as šoupálek dlouhoprstý, budníček lesní and králíček ohnivý.

If you are here in autumn, you can expect waders, which include vodouš bahenní, vodouš šedý and pisík obecný. The river itself also has a lot to offer, morčák velký and numerous labuť velká breed here. ​In the morning, the loud cry of the jeřáb popelavý resounds here, as it brings out its nests here. I hope I have described it well and encouraged you to visit this wonderful place.
