Beschrijving
The Meißendorfer Teiche (ponds) with the Bannetzer Moor are a nature reserve and bird sanctuary of national importance on the edge of the Lüneburger Heide. The nature reserve comprises pond areas in different stages of succession, meadows and alder forests, sandy areas with pine trees, raised moor remains and large moor areas covered by bushes. You can see birds like Zeearend, Visarend, Kraanvogel, Zwarte Ooievaar and Roerdomp, and other animals like the otter.
But the Meißendorfer Teiche are particularly known for its rich bird life. About 130 breeding bird species. Next to the above mentioned Big Five you can see nice birds like Krooneend, Brilduiker, Wespendief, Bruine Kiekendief, Boomvalk and Grauwe Klauwier. In addition, about 40 species of dragonfly and over 400 butterfly species live there. A circular hiking trail around the Hüttensee lake and its observation tower on the south bank offer wide views of the nature reserve.
