The Salmenwiesen meadows are easily accessible and offer a good mix of birds all year round, especially at times when there is water on the meadows and in the ditches. When the meadows are flooded, a good number of birds use the meadows as a place to feed and rest. дива гуска, Canada Goose, сива чапја, зеленонога блатна кокошка, Дива патка and Црна врана are nearly always present. At times they are joined by штрк, лисеста гусковидна патка and патка берија.
During spring migration it is possible to see pairs or small groups of планинско ливадарче and Жолта тресиопашка. If you are lucky, you may see обична бекасина , полски трскар or even a rarity such as a чапја говедарка! During spring and summer there is a good chance of observing обично грмушарче, обично страче and селска ластовичка. Birds of prey can also frequently be observed soaring over the meadows.
In winter, ливадска трепетилка and бела тресиопашка are usually present and can be heard and seen foraging on the meadows and in the reeds.
