Descrizione

In spring and summer, the breeding colony of Beccapesci is the absolute eyecatcher of Wagejot. In 2020 there were 6.500 breeding pairs of this species and the noise was absolutely deafening. At high tide, lots of waders from the mudflats of the Wadden Sea may come to roost. Expect Pittima minore, Corriere grosso , Pantana , Combattente, Piovanello maggiore, Piovanello pancianera and many more. In winter, many species of ducks will enjoy the quietness of the area. For example Mestolone, Fischione, Alzavola and Codone . There is no tidal action any more.

In de lente en zomer is de broedkolonie van Beccapesci de absolute eyecatcher van dit gebied. In 2020 waren er 6.500 broedparen van deze soort en het geluid was absoluut oorverdovend. Bij hoogwater kunnen veel steltlopers uit het wad van de Waddenzee hier komen rusten. Verwacht Pittima minore, Corriere grosso, Pantana, Combattente, Piovanello maggiore, Piovanello pancianera en nog veel meer. In de winter zullen veel soorten eenden genieten van de rust. Bijvoorbeeld Mestolone, Fischione, Alzavola en Codone. Er is in Wagejot geen getijdenwerking meer.

Informazioni aggiuntive

Wagejot originates from the Wadden Sea, before the Delta dike was built (after the big flood in 1953). The old dike was very curved and the new dike could not follow its exact course. In this particular case, quite a large part of the Wadden Sea was locked off by the new dike. The old dike is still there, providing a lot of rest for the area.

_________________________

Nederlands: Wagejot was onderdeel van de Waddenzee, voordat de Deltadijk werd aangelegd (na de grote watersnoodramp in 1953). De oude dijk was erg gekromd en de nieuwe dijk kon zijn exacte loop niet volgen. In dit specifieke geval werd een vrij groot deel van de Waddenzee afgesloten door de nieuwe dijk. De oude dijk staat er nog en biedt veel rust voor de omgeving.
