Descrizione
The small river Selz has been renaturalised at this reserve. Along with an area of flooded marshes, reedbeds, ponds, grassland and scattered riverine woodland, some regionally scarce breeders are present and over the years a wide variety of passage and winter birds have been recorded. Over 200 species are now on the reserve list. A concerted effort in Spring on a good day can produce 70 species at the reserve and along the river.
The main attraction for most will be spring and summer reedbed visitors, such as Pettazzurro, Salciaiola and Falco di palude. Cannareccione has become more regular and Basettino appears to have recently colonised. Pendolino has bred but nowadays has generally reduced to being a scarce migrant. There is a Airone cenerino colony and scarcer relatives such as Nitticora, Garzetta, Tarabusino, Airone rosso and Tarabuso have all been recorded in recent years, some regularly.
Passage waders can be found on the pools or flooded grasslands, but this is heavily dependent on weather and water level conditions. More regular are Piro piro culbianco, Piro piro boschereccio, Pettegola Pantana, Piovanello pancianera, Combattente and Totano moro but local scarcities such as Pittima reale, Chiurlo piccolo, Piovanello comune, Gambecchio nano and even Falaropo beccolargo have all been recorded.
Gru , Cicogna bianca and Cicogna nera are regular visitors. The woodlands hold good numbers of Usignolo and Rigogolo. Picchio rosso mezzano has recently colonised the area. Civetta and Gufo comune breed, as does Lodolaio, Nibbio reale and Nibbio bruno.
Wildfowl numbers build up modestly in Spring and Autumn with Alzavola being the most easily encountered. Visibility can be a challenge with reeds obscuring the pools, so try using a scope from higher ground. In most winters, singles or low numbers of wild geese are recorded among the resident groups of Oca selvatica, the most regular being Oca lombardella. Spioncello is regular on passage and sometimes winter.

Accesso
Limited free parking is available at a couple of small paved areas next to the L432 between Hahnheim and Sörgenloch. This road is also on a bus-route (652) with the nearest bus-stop at Wahlheimer Hof to the east of the reserve, or alternatively at Sörgenloch to the west. A path, paved only on most of the southern side, circumvents the pools, grassland, and reedbeds. Cycling the southern edge is possible, but other stretches are higher grass or muddy depending on conditions.
