The bird watching hide at the south basin of Hauke Haien Koog offers a wonderful view of the water and the directly adjacent wet meadows.
The Hauke-Haie-Koog is an important resting and moulting area for many bird species in the Wadden Sea. Every year in spring and autumn when migrating, thousands of geese come to the Hauke-Haien-Koog to rest and moult. Large flocks of Bécasseau variable also use this area as a high water resting place. Avocette élégante, terns, and various songbird species such as Bruant des roseaux, Panure à moustaches and Phragmite des joncs use the Koog with its wide reed areas as a breeding area. Busard des roseaux, Oie cendrée, Butor étoilé and various types of ducks also settle here to raise their young. After the breeding season from June to September, large groups of Spatule blanche can be observed. Among them are young and adult birds.
The observation hide can be reached directly by car because a parking lot is right next to it. You can also make a stop here by bike along the coastal cycle path.
