Description
The abundance of water in De Blikken attracts many ducks and geese in winter. (Ευρωπαϊκό) Σφυριχτάρι and Ασπρομέτωπη Χήνα graze on the banks. Small waders scavenge their food along the muddy banks. In the spring, meadow birds such as (Ευρωπαϊκή) Καλημάνα and (Ευρωπαϊκή) Λιμόζα nest here. Hundreds of Καστανοκέφαλος Γλάρος and dozens of Μαυροβουτηχτάρι and (Ευρωπαϊκή) Αβοκέτα breed on the centrally located islands. The number of breeding Barnacle Goose is increasing every year.

Nederlands: De Blikken is een klein natuurgebied waar het water zoveel mogelijk wordt vastgehouden. De overvloed aan water trekt in de winter veel eenden en ganzen aan. (Ευρωπαϊκό) Σφυριχτάρι en Ασπρομέτωπη Χήνα grazen op de oevers. Kleine steltlopers scharrelen hun voedsel langs de modderige oevers. In het voorjaar broeden hier weidevogels zoals (Ευρωπαϊκή) Καλημάνα en (Ευρωπαϊκή) Λιμόζα. Honderden Καστανοκέφαλος Γλάρος en tientallen Μαυροβουτηχτάρι en (Ευρωπαϊκή) Αβοκέτα broeden op de centraal gelegen eilanden. Het aantal broedende Barnacle Goose neemt elk jaar toe. Vanaf de Ringdijk kun je het gebied goed overzien en er zijn ook twee vogelkijkhutten.
