Descripción
Well over 230 species of birds have been recorded in the Häftli, almost 80 of which are breeding birds. Important breeding birds are Zampullín Común, Somormujo Lavanco, Milano Negro, Rascón Europeo, Martín Pescador Común, Pico Menor, Ruiseñor Común and . The Häftli is an important wintering site for waterfowl, including several hundred Cerceta Común, Ánade friso and Silbón Europeo. Various species of herons, birds of prey, waders and numerous songbirds can be observed as they pass through.
Although the area was significantly changed by the two Jura water corrections and in particular by the construction of the Nidau–Büren Canal, the characteristic floodplain elements are still largely present today.
