Beschreibung
Saltern Wetlands gets many more birds than it did before high tide bank was breached. You can observe flocks of Kiebitz, Großer Brachvogel, Krickente, Pfeifente, Rotschenkel, Uferschnepfe and Säbelschnäbler. Winter guests include Dunkler Wasserläufer. Other birds that can be seen are Brandgans, Löffelente, Sandregenpfeifer and Austernfischer. Wanderfalke, Rohrweihe and Mäusebussard hunt over the area at times. Two small freshwater ponds were created at the same time, between the railway line and the inland end of the tidal area, and have had Schwarzhalstaucher and Flußregenpfeifer on them.
