The West Linge Banks lie on both sides of the river Linge between Beesd and Arkel. A varied area with many species of birds.
The area of the western Linge banks is a varied patchwork of jagged banks with ponds, straits, swamp forests, reed beds, poplar stands and grasslands on both sides of the Linge. It is rich in many species of water, marsh and forest birds. During the breeding season one can find plenty of мал трскар, блатен трскар, трскар рогозар, свиларче, градинарско грмушарче, Мочварна овесарка and Синогушка. Here and there there is a chance of штурче трскарче, полски трскар, жолто гушанче, славејче, планинска сипка and лисесто циганче. кукавица and зелен клукајдрвец are guaranteed in spring. The рибарче breeds in a few places. The црвена чапја forages in the area. The цуцулест нуркач is everywhere. A wandering ноќна чапја is possible.
In winter and early spring, parts of the floodplains are often flooded, with often meadow birds and waders, such as црноопашна блатарка, црвенонога тринга, обична бекасина and duck species such asпатка берија, патка лажичарка and сива патка. In the reeds you can hear барска кокошка. An encounter with шумска шљука is not unlikely.
Nederlands: De Lingeoevers West liggen aan weerszijden van de Linge tussen Beesd en Arkel. Een afwisselend gebied waar veel soorten vogels te vinden zijn. Het gebied van de westelijke Lingeoevers is een afwisselende lappendeken van grillige oevers met plassen, strangen, moerasbossen, rietvelden, grienden, populierenopstanden en (extensieve) graslanden aan weerszijden van de Linge. Het is rijk aan veel soorten water-, moeras- en bosvogels. In de broedtijd kan men volop de мал трскар, блатен трскар, трскар рогозар, свиларче, градинарско грмушарче, Мочварна овесарка en Синогушка horen. Hier en daar is er kans op штурче трскарче, полски трскар, жолто гушанче, славејче en лисесто циганче. кукавица en зелен клукајдрвец zijn in het voorjaar niet te missen. De рибарче broedt op enkele plekken. De црвена чапја foerageert in het gebied. De цуцулест нуркач kom je overal tegen. Een zwervende ноќна чапја is niet uitgesloten. 's Winters en in het vroege voorjaar staan delen van uiterwaarden vaak onder water, met veel kans op weidevogels en steltlopers, zoals црноопашна блатарка, црвенонога тринга en обична бекасина en eendensoorten als патка берија, патка лажичарка en сива патка. In rietland en grienden kun je de барска кокошка horen. Een ontmoeting met een opvliegende шумска шљука is niet onwaarschijnlijk.
