Meadow bird area of a few hundred hectares, which is a reminder of times when the lower parts of the Betuwe were still rich in meadow birds.
The Rijswijkse Veld and the Zoelense Veld consist of grasslands with wide ditches and waterways, with still considerable numbers of meadow birds. In the context of agricultural nature management, mowing takes place later, nest protection is done by volunteers and wet grassland spots have been created. The wide, quiet area is worth visiting in the spring. Dozens of pairs of црноопашна блатарка and also црвенонога тринга, остригар, калуѓерка, Жолта тресиопашка and ливадска трепетилка are breeding here. In some places полска чучулига. Also outside the breeding season it is a good place for Tundra Bean Goose, белочелна гуска and other geese species (sometimes even црвенограда гуска), ducks including many патка свиркач and in smaller numbers патка берија, патка лажичарка and патка крецка and groups of голем српоклун свиркач.
The wetter parts and wide banks of waterways attract all kinds of migrating waders such as бојник, шумска тринга, зеленонога тринга, шарен српоклун свиркач and обична бекасина. There is also a chance of the foraging чапја лажичарка. Birds of prey such as блатна еја, глувчар, сив сокол and Обична (Црнонокна) ветрушка hunt here, but also црна луња, црвена луња and Полска еја have been seen on migration. You can find кукумјавка near farms.

Nederlands: Agrarisch beheerd weidevogelgebied van een paar honderd hectare, dat herinnert aan tijden dat de lage delen van de Betuwe nog rijk aan weidevogels waren. Het Rijswijkse Veld en het Zoelense Veld bestaan uit graslanden met brede sloten en weteringen, met nog behoorlijke aantallen weidevogels. In het kader van agrarisch natuurbeheer wordt later gemaaid, wordt aan nestbescherming gedaan door vrijwilligers en zijn plasdras-plekken gemaakt. Het weidse rustige gebied is de moeite waard om in het voorjaar te bezoeken. Er broeden tientallen paren црноопашна блатарка en daarnaast црвенонога тринга, остригар, калуѓерка, Жолта тресиопашка en ливадска трепетилка. Op enkele plekken zingt nog de полска чучулига. Ook buiten het broedseizoen is het een goede plek voor Tundra Bean Goose, белочелна гуска en andere ganzensoorten (soms zelfs een црвенограда гуска), eenden waaronder veel патка свиркач en in kleiner aantal патка берија , патка лажичарка en патка крецка en groepjes голем српоклун свиркач.
De plasdraslandjes en brede oevers van weteringen trekken allerlei doortrekkende steltlopers aan zoals бојник, шумска тринга, зеленонога тринга, шарен српоклун свиркач en обична бекасина. Er is ook kans op de foeragerende чапја лажичарка. Roofvogels als блатна еја, глувчар, сив сокол en Обична (Црнонокна) ветрушка jagen hier, maar ook црна луња, црвена луња en Полска еја zijn op trek gezien. In de buurt van boerderijen kun je de кукумјавка aantreffen.
