Descripción
The Langwieser See is a small lake. The lake itself isn't very good for birding, but sometimes you can spot Martín Pescador Común there. In the reed area about 100 meters east of the lake, in winter you can see for example Escribano Palustre and sometimes also Rascón Europeo. In summer it's full of Carricero Común. West to the lake, there are nice water reservoirs, which in winter often contain Agachadiza Chica (best to spot with a thermal imaging camera), and sometimes Agachadiza común.
South to the reservoirs, there is a smal bush land with Escribano Cerillo, Jilguero Europeo and in winter often Pinzón Real. In the gardens and trees along the small stream you can find Jilguero Lúgano in winter and Colirrojo Real and Curruca Zarcera in summer. Sometimes you can also hear a Ruiseñor Común here.
Very good are the fields around the whole area. During migration you can see Bisbita Pratense, Carricero Políglota, Tarabilla común (sometimes also staying over winter), Azor Común, Collalba Gris, Lavandera Boyera, Curruca Zarcerilla and rarely Torcecuello Euroasiático, Avefría Europea and Aguilucho pálido. All year round you will find Pardillo Común, Alondra Común, Garza Real and Cernícalo vulgar. Sometimes you can also see Perdiz Pardilla, Gavilán Común or Halcón Peregrino.
