Beschrijving
Mooswald and Mooswaldseen consist of the old (eastern) and the new (western) lake Mooswaldsee, a few other quarry lakes, a birch forest, reed areas and it borders directly on the meadow areas of the Leipheimer Moos (also described on Birdingplaces). Many exciting bird species live here in a very small area. In the forest you can regularly observe 7 native species of woodpeckers (Grote Bonte Specht, Middelste Bonte Specht, Kleine Bonte Specht, Groene Specht, Grijskopspecht, Zwarte Specht, Draaihals), plus lots of songbirds like Wielewaal and Withalsvliegenvanger, but also larger birds like Raaf and Koekoek.
A Kokmeeuw colony is located at the old Mooswaldsee, but bigger gulls like Geelpootmeeuw are also usually there. You can easily observe them from a small observation hide. In addition, an escaped Chilean flamingo has been seen here again and again for several years. At the new Mooswaldsee there is an observation tower with a free telescope attached, through which you can observe various species of ducks and geese. Waders like Kleine Plevier, Kemphaan and Witgat are also not uncommon there.
In the reed areas around the lake you can often hear Blauwborst, Rietzanger, Grote Karekiet, Kleine Karekiet, Snor and Rietgors. Bushes around the lakes have Bosrietzanger, Nachtegaal, Roodborsttapuit and Buidelmees. And there are also plenty of birds of prey: Visarend, Bruine Kiekendief and Boomvalk, in winter also Velduil and Blauwe Kiekendief, hunt here.
The area is definitely worth a visit, also because extreme rarities are repeatedly reported.
