Description
Blumberger Mühle nature reserve has a NABU-Naturerlebniszentrum with a visitor centre, exhibitions, a restaurant and more. Behind it, there is a small park with nature trails, gardens, small reed ponds, a playground and hides overlooking the fishponds. There is also an outdoor enclosure with European Pond Turtles.
The fishponds are a good place to see ducks, waders in autumn, especially Hjejle and Havørn can often be seen year-round. Trane roost on the fishponds in autumn. In summer, Sort Stork often visits the fishponds and a high number of Lille Lappedykker breed here. In winter it is a good place to see Pibesvane among the many Sangsvane.
The area around the visitor centre has many species of gardens and open landscapes to offer: several warbler species, Sydlig Nattergal and sometimes also Nattergal, or Rødrygget Tornskade and Tornirisk. The Blumberger Mühle also hosts a breeding pair of Bjergvipstjert. Further common species are Isfugl, Sølvhejre and Hvid Vipstjert.
