Beschreibung
The Reckahn Fishponds – built end of 19th century – are now in extensive use and offer nice and close observations of waterbirds, birds of the reeds, ducks and waders. The area has 11 ponds of which ponds 1, 2, 3, 5 and 11 are best for birdwatching (see map for numbering). There are several observation platforms around the ponds. But be aware: these are only elevated park benches and offer neither disguise nor shade.
Breeding birds are amongst others Haubentaucher, Zwergtaucher, Schwarzhalstaucher (rare), Rothalstaucher, Schnatterente, Schellente, Wasserralle, Tüpfelsumpfhuhn (rare), Rohrweihe, Eisvogel, Drosselrohrsänger and Gebirgsstelze.
The best time for waders is summer and late summer. Waders are mainly found on pond 2 (see map). If you plan only a short visit for waders, then visit this pond. Main species are Kiebitz, Bruchwasserläufer and Bekassine (good views). Rarities in the past included Spitzschwanz-Strandläufer, Graubrust-Strandläufer, Steppenkiebitz, Sumpfläufer, Teichwasserläufer and Rallenreiher.
During the time when adults need to feed their offspring, Fischadler, Seeadler and Schwarzstorch can be seen visiting the ponds. The mud flats are also used by Kranich as a roosting place, so please avoid disturbances in the evening and at night. A good place for seeing Wasserralle or Tüpfelsumpfhuhn is pond 3.

They are situated north of the ponds (see map). The manor park and village Reckahn can be good for Sommergoldhähnchen, Girlitz and Türkentaube. Weißstorch nests are found in nearly every village.
