Beschreibung
This major site in the department counts no less than 210 bird species among the 344 in the department. The pond is a protected natural area and managed to be favorable for birds and wildlife. The area is mainly composed of open water, meadows, woods and agricultural fields.
The breeding species are obviously waterbirds. Among ducks, the species worth mentioning are Schnatterente and Knäkente, and the well-established Tafelente. A colonny of nesting herons (Graureiher, Kuhreiher) and Kormoran is settled in a few trees around the lake but remains a small colonny. Considering songbirds, you can expect Zistensänger, Schilfrohrsänger, Teichrohrsänger and Rohrammer. On the wader side, Flußregenpfeifer, Kiebitz and Triel use exposed banks for breeding.
During migration, a few interesting and regular species use the lake as a stopover: Graugans, Kampfläufer, Bruchwasserläufer, Alpenstrandläufer, Weißbart-Seeschwalbe, Uferschwalbe, Löffler, Fischadler, Spießente, Uferschnepfe. It's the time of scarcities and rarities. These species have already been observed here: Steppenkiebitz, Thorshühnchen, Sichler, Bläßgans, Ringelgans and Moorente.
In winter, the site is frequented by many ducks including Stockente, Krickente and Tafelente. Bergpieper is seen foraging on the shores with Bachstelze among which ssp. yarellii can be found.
