Descripción
The Schellingwouderscheg includes five city parks (marked on the map). From west to east: Vliegenbos (forest), Rietland (scrub, reedbeds, small lake, young forest), Schellingwouderbreek (lake with natural shores), Schellingwouderpark (meadows and hedgerows, plus the shores of the Y canal) and the Schellingwouder Ecozone (reedbeds, scrub, overgrown woods).
This area is very good for birds of prey with Gavilán Común, Busardo ratonero, Azor Común, Cárabo Común and formerly Alcotán Europeo all breeding in this urban nature reserve. They are most easily seen in Vliegenbos and Rietland. There's a very good chance of finding Martín Pescador Común anywhere there's water . In addition to the ubiquitous Cotorra de Kramer the area also has a lot of Cotorra Alejandrina, keep an ear out for their distinctive calls as they fly over.
Vliegenbos sometimes harbours birds like Picogordo Común and Trepador Azul among the more common forest birds and is the best place to find Paloma Zurita. The Pito Real seems to have mostly disappeared since the football fields in the park were converted to tennis courts, but they are still seen every now and then. The industrial area just to the south of Vliegenbos has breeding Colirrojo Tizón.
Rietland and Schellingwouderpark have some more open areas of scattered trees and scrub that can be good for Curruca Zarcera, Curruca Zarcerilla, Curruca Mosquitera, Mosquitero Musical and occasionally Cuco Común or Ruiseñor Común . There are some small reedbeds in Rietland and Schellingwouderbreek that sometimes have Carricerín Común, Carricero Común and Escribano Palustre. The meadows in Schellingwouderpark often have Cigüeña Blanca, Ostrero Euroasiático and Brown Hares in the early morning before people arrive. During migration there's a chance of Mirlo Capiblanco here.
In harsh winters, birds that normally reside outside of the city enter these city parks, and then you can see Cuchara Común, Silbón Europeo, Porrón Europeo, Serreta Grande, Garceta Grande, Avetoro Común, Rascón Europeo, Chocha Perdiz, Agachadiza común, Zorzal Real and Avefría Europea. In the much more common icefree winters you can still find Zorzal Alirrojo, Jilguero Lúgano, Reyezuelo Sencillo, Reyezuelo Listado and Pinzón Real.
Keep an eye out for Martinete Común and overflying Pigargo Europeo, both are very occasionally seen here. Other interesting animals include Grass Snake and Red Fox. Just to the north of this area are breeding colonies of Garza Real and Barnacla Cariblanca, both are marked on the map.
Just to the east of this route is the Schellingwouder Ecozone (marked on the map). Another small but wonderfully wild area with Carricero Políglota and Cetia Ruiseñor and a reasonable chance of Cuco Común and Ruiseñor Común .
The Schellingwouderscheg is constantly under threat from development: there are plans to build houses, infrastructure and turn the parks from wild city nature reserves to boring run of the mill urban parks. Already it can be very busy with people and dogs.

Accesso
The best way to explore the area is by bike, but you can walk as well. The car isn't very practical here, as there is little (parking) space and it isn't very convenient getting from one of the parks to the other by car.
If you walked or cycled from Vliegenbos to Schellingwouderpark and don't want to go the same way back, you can take a northern route from Schellingwouderbreek, through the Baanakkerspark (marked on the map).
