Beschrijving
The Reckahn Fishponds – built end of 19th century – are now in extensive use and offer nice and close observations of waterbirds, birds of the reeds, ducks and waders. The area has 11 ponds of which ponds 1, 2, 3, 5 and 11 are best for birdwatching (see map for numbering). There are several observation platforms around the ponds. But be aware: these are only elevated park benches and offer neither disguise nor shade.
Breeding birds are amongst others Fuut, Dodaars, Geoorde Fuut (rare), Roodhalsfuut, Krakeend, Brilduiker, Waterral, Porseleinhoen (rare), Bruine Kiekendief, IJsvogel, Grote Karekiet and Grote Gele Kwikstaart.
The best time for waders is summer and late summer. Waders are mainly found on pond 2 (see map). If you plan only a short visit for waders, then visit this pond. Main species are Kievit, Bosruiter and Watersnip (good views). Rarities in the past included Siberische Strandloper, Gestreepte Strandloper, Steppekievit, Breedbekstrandloper, Poelruiter and Ralreiger.
During the time when adults need to feed their offspring, Visarend, Zeearend and Zwarte Ooievaar can be seen visiting the ponds. The mud flats are also used by Kraanvogel as a roosting place, so please avoid disturbances in the evening and at night. A good place for seeing Waterral or Porseleinhoen is pond 3.

They are situated north of the ponds (see map). The manor park and village Reckahn can be good for Vuurgoudhaan, Europese Kanarie and Turkse Tortel. Ooievaar nests are found in nearly every village.
