Beschreibung
600 Hectares of nature reserve in a 1000 Hectares nature complex. The area is easily accesible and has a wide variation of natural habitats.
The larger fens attract migrating waders and waterfowl, Rotschenkel, Grünschenkel and Alpenstrandläufer to name a few. Several pairs of Ziegenmelker breed on the moors, Wendehals and Steinschmätzer pass by on their migration. In the forest areas Schwarzspecht and Mittelspecht can be seen together with the more common woodpeckers. A few pairs of Trauerschnäpper still breed here. Birds of prey such as Wanderfalke, Baumfalke, Habicht and Wespenbussard breed in or around the area. Recently a pair of Kolkrabe was added to the list of birds breeding in the area.
During the autumn migration the migration counting station is manned almost daily throughout September and October and vistors are always welcome to admire the spectacle of thousands of finches, pipits, trushes and, on good days, tens to sometimes a few hundred Mäusebussard passing on their way south. Even rarities such as Seeadler and Schelladler have passed over the counting station in recent years.
During autumn and winter Bergfink and Fichtenkreuzschnabel are quite common guests. Raubwürger passes by but is not a regular guest.
