Descripción

The Krickenbecker Seen consist of four fairly large lakes, which originated between the 16th and 19th century due to peat extraction. In 1938, the area became a protected nature reserve due to its large variety of flora and fauna. Especially in winter, the area is a very good location for waterfowl, like ducks, geese and herons. The surrounding forests are good for songbirds and woodpeckers.

The two largest lakes, called Glabbacher Bruch and Hinsbecker Bruch, contain the largest numbers of waterfowl during the winter months. Large flocks of Ánade azulón, Porrón Europeo, Cuchara Común and Ánade friso can be found in flocks of 100+ individuals. Also Serreta Grande and Serreta Chica can be observed fairly regularly. During autumn migration, the area is apparently favorable for migrating waterbirds, like Fumarel Común and Gaviota Enana. In the last ten years, even observations of Gaviota Tridáctila, Pagaza Piquirroja and Gaviota de Sabine have been made.

The two smaller lakes, called Schrolik and Poelvenn, are located on the western side of the larger lakes and are also a very good spot for waterfowl, but in smaller numbers. Species like Cerceta Común can be found here too. The shores are covered more with reedbeds and therefore a very good place for reedbirds, like Carricero Común and Escribano Palustre and sometimes even Buscarla Pintoja, Bigotudo and Ruiseñor Pechiazul.

The lakes are connected to the Nette river, which is a very good location for Martín Pescador Común and Lavandera Cascadeña.

The area is also a good spot for migrating raptors, especially above the lakes, like Milano Real, Milano Negro and Águila Pescadora.

The surrounding forests are an ideal location for typical forest species, Curruca Capirotada, Colirrojo Real and Papamoscas Cerrojillo. Also, many woodpeckers can be found here, like Pico Mediano and Picamaderos Negro.
