Descrizione

The "Goudse Hout" is a large city park on the northern part of Gouda en consists of an old peat meadow area with many high bushes, forested areas, ditches and ponds. There's a large body of water in the western part of the area. Many species of waterfowl can be found here, like Canapiglia, Moretta, Mestolone and Oca facciabianca. Also, scarce species like Fistione turco can be found here. In summer, Sterna comune uses the water body as foraging area. Large areas of reedbeds surround the water body, which are being used as breeding habitat for Cannaiola, Forapaglie comune and Cannaiola verdognola. Also, scarce species like Usignolo di fiume, Salciaiola and Forapaglie macchiettato can be found here.

The "Goudse Hout" mainly consists of old pastures with high bushes and forested areas. Within these areas, species like Bigiarella and Canapino maggiore breed. Other species, like Cuculo and Picchio verde can also be found here. Lodolaio and Falco di palude use the area as hunting ground. If you're lucky, small groups of Mignattino comune, Gabbiano corallino or even an Falco pescatore pass overhead.

In winter, the area is mainly used by large flocks of mixed songbirds, like finches and thrushes. Large groups of Lucherino and Cardellino use the area as foraging area. In the ditches, Airone bianco maggiore can be found.
