An area that guarantees some great sightings. Rare forest, meadow and water birds can be observed here.
Mooswald and Mooswaldseen consist of the old (eastern) and the new (western) lake Mooswaldsee, a few other quarry lakes, a birch forest, reed areas and it borders directly on the meadow areas of the Leipheimer Moos (also described on Birdingplaces). Many exciting bird species live here in a very small area. In the forest you can regularly observe 7 native species of woodpeckers (Pic épeiche, Pic mar, Pic épeichette, Pic vert, Pic cendré, Pic noir, Torcol fourmilier), plus lots of songbirds like Loriot d'Europe and Gobemouche à collier, but also larger birds like Grand Corbeau and Coucou gris.
A Mouette rieuse colony is located at the old Mooswaldsee, but bigger gulls like Goéland leucophée are also usually there. You can easily observe them from a small observation hide. In addition, an escaped Chilean flamingo has been seen here again and again for several years. At the new Mooswaldsee there is an observation tower with a free telescope attached, through which you can observe various species of ducks and geese. Waders like Petit Gravelot, Combattant varié and Chevalier culblanc are also not uncommon there.
In the reed areas around the lake you can often hear Gorgebleue à miroir, Phragmite des joncs, Rousserolle turdoïde, Rousserolle effarvatte, Locustelle luscinioïde and Bruant des roseaux. Bushes around the lakes have Rousserolle verderolle, Rossignol philomèle, Tarier pâtre and Rémiz penduline. And there are also plenty of birds of prey: Balbuzard pêcheur, Busard des roseaux and Faucon hobereau, in winter also Hibou des marais and Busard Saint-Martin, hunt here.
The area is definitely worth a visit, also because extreme rarities are repeatedly reported.
Mooswald and Mooswaldseen are located north of the town of Günzburg. The area is easily accessible by car. There are plenty of parking spaces at the quarry lakes. Click on the P in the map for directions to a parking spot. The rest can easily be accessed on foot or by bike. No difficult paths, except for the path to the observation hide on the eastern Mooswaldsee - this path can be partially flooded.
Parts of the paths can be flooded (especially in spring), so small detours have to be taken.
