Description
At the Hagenburger canal you can see many ducks in winter and autumn. Especially at the point where the canal floats into the Steinhuder Meer. Among the ducks you can expect are harmaasorsa, Lapasorsa, haapana, sinisorsa, jouhisorsa, punasotka, ruskosotka and tukkasotka. In spring you can find warblers like ruokosirkkalintu, viitasirkkalintu, rastaskerttunen, luhtakerttunen and rytikerttunen. And this is also one of the best spots for kuningaskalastaja. You can find many songbirds like vihervarpunen, laulurastas, kirjosieppo, sinirinta and pajusirkku.
At the mouth of the canal you can find especially in May some other waterbirds like mustatiira, kalatiira and with some luck rarities like riuttatiira ,räyskä or valkoposkitiira.
