Dune area with a winding creek and meadows. The walk you can make here is a nice combination of birding on the seaside and seeing reedbirds and meadowbirds.
Beautiful area with a transition from dune area to a polder. The clean and calcareous water flows from the dunes into the Volgerland. That attracts many birds (and special plants like orchids). The area is important for meadow birds and everywhere you can see калуѓерка and singing полска чучулига. Also црноопашна блатарка, црвенонога тринга, остригар and Жолта тресиопашка. чапја лажичарка and патка лажичарка forage in the creek. In winter you can see златно блатарче, обичен свиркач, црна тринга, зеленонога тринга and other waders in the Volgerland. And large groups of Brent Goose. In spring and early summmer калуѓерка fiercely defend their young against Црна врана flying overhead. Next to meadow birds in Volgerland you can see birds from reedbeds like мал трскар and мустаклеста сипка and birds from thickets like жолто гушанче. The Volgerland is right next to the beach. At low tide you can see seals on the sandbanks off the coast. Moreover, in winter you can often see мал морски нуркач, среден северен нуркач and various types of grebes without a telescope. And on the beach бел свиркач.

Nederlands: Volgerland is een duingebied met kronkelende beek en weilanden. De wandeling die je hier kunt maken is een mooie combinatie van vogels kijken aan zee en het zien van rietvogels en weidevogels. Prachtig gebied met overgang van duingebied naar polder. Het schone en kalkhoudende water stroomt vanuit de duinen het Volgerland in. Dat trekt veel vogels (en bijzondere planten zoals orchideeën) aan. Het gebied is belangrijk voor weidevogels en overal zie je калуѓерка en zingende полска чучулига. Ook црноопашна блатарка, црвенонога тринга, остригар en Жолта тресиопашка. чапја лажичарка en патка лажичарка foerageren in de kreek. In de winter zie je златно блатарче, обичен свиркач, црна тринга, зеленонога тринга en andere steltlopers in het Volgerland. En grote groepen Brent Goose en Barnacle Goose. In het voorjaar en de vroege zomer verdedigen калуѓерка hun jongen fel tegen Црна врана die boven hun hoofd vliegen. Naast weidevogels in Volgerland zie je rietvogels zoals мал трскар en мустаклеста сипка en struweelvogels zoals жолто гушанче. Het Volgerland ligt pal naast het strand. Bij eb kun je zeehonden zien op de zandbanken voor de kust. Bovendien kun je hier in de winter vaak zonder telescoop мал морски нуркач, среден северен нуркач en verschillende soorten futen zien. En op het strand бел свиркач.
