Descripción
The "Tichelgaten" is a fairly small natural area near the village of Buren and consists of several small ponds, reedbeds, pastures and small forested areas. Once, this area has been excavated for clay and has been turned into a small natural area since. The area is a good spot for many species of common songbird, woodpecker and small numbers of waterbirds. Frequently sighted species are Pito Real, Curruca Capirotada and Papamoscas Gris. The small ponds and reedbeds are a great spot for Carricero Común, Zampullín Común and Martín Pescador Común. The small forested area in the west provides good habitat for woodpeckers, like Pico Picapinos and sometimes Pico Menor. Scarcer species that can be found here are Oropéndola Europea, Cetia Ruiseñor, Picogordo Común and Ruiseñor Común.
On the northern side of the road, the biggest pond is located and provides a great spot for many species of waterbird. In winter, fairly large numbers of Porrón Moñudo and Ánade friso can be found here. Sometimes, scarcer species like Serreta Grande and Porrón Europeo might show up.
