Descripción
Wacken offers surprisingly good birding for an urban environment. The main reason to come to Wacken, aside from its convenience for anyone visiting the European institutions, or for any Strasbourgeois heading for a swim in the nearby outdoor pool, is the chance to watch the resident Garza Real fishing on the weir. Gaviota Patiamarilla, Gaviota Reidora and Cormorán Grande also take advantage of the white water and are equally habituated to human presence, making photography rather easy.
The walking route shown on the map is offered as an example for anyone wanting to go for a stroll, but most of the birdlife is fairly compact and there's no real need to head out further than the canoe/kayak club at one end, or the appropriately named Ile aux Oiseaux (Bird Island) at the other.
Moving away from the weir you'll find a series of council-owned allotments and gardens that are full of birds, helped in part by one of the tenants creating a "refuge LPO" - a kind of mini bird reserve. There may not be a huge amount of light under the foliage but Agateador Europeo abound, as do Papamoscas Gris in the spring and summer. As far as garden birds go, most of the usual suspects can be found at one time or another. Jilguero Lúgano are notable visitors in winter, and it's always worth looking out for Chochín Común as well as Reyezuelo Sencillo and Reyezuelo Listado in the riverside undergrowth.
The area towards the pool is a roost for corvids in winter, and receives frequent visits from a Gavilán Común. A little further on you'll often see a Martín Pescador Común darting across the water, and can usually find Cormorán Grande in the tree tops, as well as Gallineta Común underneath.
