A nice place for many waders, ducks and even rare migrants and all coastal birds.
The water is a great place for waders. For example Mali Žalar, Crnorepa Muljača, Kulik Blatarić, Prutka Migavica, Crna Prutka breeding Modronoga Sabljarka, and much more. Songbirds like Modrovoljka, Trstenjak Rogožar, Livadna Trepetljka, Sivkasta Bjeloguza, Žuta Pastirica and Brkata Sjenica are seen there regularly. During migration you also can find many other birds and even rarities. Regularly (different seasons) there can be seen bird like Mali Sokol, Štekavac, different terns like Arktička čigra, up to 209 Žličarka, Eja Strnjarica, Vivak, Glavata Patka, Patka Batoglavica, Sivi Sokol, Mali Gnjurac and much, much more!
There are two ways. A good one (walking, biking) from Neuharlingersiel in Northwest or one from Harlesiel in the northeast. Both take about 2 km until you reach a little platform with a scope. The biggest advantage there ist that you can look over the Wadden Sea for more birds roosting in the saltmarshes. The second way is for the car directly to the lake from the south (you see it at a map). Bring your own scopes!
The best time is during migration and during summer when many waders are roosting here! For example August to September. In winter you see mainly geese and ducks.
