Descripción
The small river Selz has been renaturalised at this reserve and European Beavers have recolonised as well. Along with an area of flooded marshes, reedbeds, ponds, grassland and scattered riverine woodland, some regionally scarce breeders are present and over the years a wide variety of passage and winter birds have been recorded. Over 200 species are now on the reserve list. A concerted effort in Spring on a good day can produce 70 species at the reserve and along the river.
The main attraction for most will be spring and summer reedbed visitors, such as Ruiseñor Pechiazul, Buscarla Unicolor and Aguilucho Lagunero Occidental. Carricero Tordal has become more regular. Bigotudo appears on passage and in some years has stayed to breed. Pájaro-moscón Europeo has bred but nowadays is generally a scarce migrant. There is a Garza Real colony and scarcer relatives such as Martinete Común, Garceta Común, Avetorillo común, Garza Imperial and Avetoro Común have all been recorded in recent years, some regularly.
Passage waders can be found on the pools or flooded grasslands, but this is heavily dependent on weather and water level conditions. More regular are Andarríos Grande, Andarríos Bastardo, Andarríos Chico and Archibebe Claro. Archibebe Común, Correlimos Común, Chorlitejo Chico, Chorlitejo Grande, Combatiente and Archibebe Oscuro are no longer regular but also possible. Local scarcities such as Aguja Colinegra, Avoceta Común, Zarapito Trinador, Correlimos Zarapitín, Correlimos de Temminck and even Falaropo Picogrueso have all been recorded here and along the river. Chorlito Dorado Europeo and Chorlito Carambolo have been recorded migrating overhead on occasion.
Grulla Común, Cigüeña Negra and Cigüeña Blanca are regular visitors, and the latter has started to breed. The woodlands hold good numbers of Ruiseñor Común and Oropéndola Europea. Pico Mediano has recently colonised the area. In adjacent meadows and scrub Alcaudón Dorsirrojo, Tarabilla común, Lavandera Boyera and Escribano Triguero can be found on passage and breeding. Mochuelo Europeo and Búho Chico breed, as does Alcotán Europeo, Milano Real and Milano Negro.
Wildfowl numbers, mostly dabbing ducks, build up modestly in Spring and Autumn with Cerceta Común, Ánade azulón, and Ánade friso being the most easily encountered. Visibility can be a challenge with reeds obscuring the pools, so try using a scope from higher ground. In most winters, singles or low numbers of wild geese are recorded among the resident groups of Ánsar común, the most regular being Ánsar careto, followed by Ánsar Campestre de la Tundra. A Cisne Cantor was a recent and unusual overwinterer. Bisbita Alpino is regular on passage and sometimes winter.

Accesso
Limited free parking is available at a couple of small paved areas next to the L432 between Hahnheim and Sörgenloch. This road is also on a bus-route (652) with the nearest bus-stop at Wahlheimer Hof to the east of the reserve, or alternatively at Sörgenloch to the west. A path, paved only on most of the southern side, circumvents the pools, grassland, and reedbeds. Cycling this part of the southern edge is possible, but other stretches are often high grass (beware of ticks) and can be muddy depending on conditions. An official paved cycling route veers west of the reserve when at the south-western corner but returns to the Selz shortly afterwards. Beaver activity and excessive rain sometimes causes extensive localised flooding.
