Rate birdingplace Kiesgrube Dünstekoven
Beschrijving
The Kiesgrube Dünstekoven is a 50-hectare nature reserve that was placed under protection after the end of gravel mining in 1995. The nature reserve has been managed by NABU (BirdLife) Bonn since 1999. In the meantime, a small-scale mosaic of different habitats has developed with open meadows, sandy steep walls, ponds, reed beds and woody islands. It's especially worth a visit because the numerous sand and gravel hills are ideal nesting places for a very special species: the Bijeneter.
