Beschreibung
The Gevaert Vijvers are ponds that were created along the Molenbeek in the Middle Ages by the monastry for fish production. Nowadays most ponds are in private ownership and fenced but one can still enjoy some birding from the public footpath (Visserspad) that follows the stream. The ponds attract some waterfowl such as Krickente, Reiherente and Schnatterente. In recent years, Kormoran and Silberreiher have become a more common sight. During migration, and especially when water levels are low, the muddy shores attract some passing waders such as Flußuferläufer, Waldwasserläufer and Grünschenkel. Interesting breeding birds are: Eisvogel, Gebirgsstelze and Kernbeißer.
