Descrizione

The Weiherwald offers a great range of habitats (mixed alluvial woodland, shallow ponds, streams, ditches, meadows, gardens), all in a very small area and close to an urban environment. It is very accessible with paths for pedestrians and cyclists transecting the area. These paths have two benefits: they makes bird observations easy and also mean that the birds are not too shy. A circular walk of the location covers all the habitats mentioned above, with many variations and little detours possible.

There is a notable population of 20 or more Alzavola present here in winter (and well into spring).

The Weiherwald is great for observing and hearing Woodpeckers, with five species possible all year round: Picchio rosso mezzano , Picchio rosso maggiore and Picchio verde are common here and there is always a chance of Picchio nero and Picchio rosso minore, especially in winter.

The shallow ponds and ditches attract Martin pescatore, which can be seen fishing or flying from one area of water to another. Ballerina gialla are sometimes present, foraging along the water's edges.

Small flocks of Codibugnolo often roam the area, along with Lucherino, Frosone and the occasional Tordo sassello in winter.

Late spring is a great time to listen to Rigogolo, Usignolo and Luì grosso. With a bit of luck Balia nera can also be seen.

Other birds present all year round include Fiorrancino, Picchio muratore, Rampichino comune and Cincia bigia.

In addition to the fantastic birdlife, the Weiherwald is also a hotspot for many (rare) amphibians and insects. No matter what time of year or day, there's always something to enjoy here!
