A beautiful meadow and cultural landscape that surprises with a variety of species, such as Koekoek, Veldleeuwerik and Boompieper.
At the beginning of Rheinaue Walsum you cross a mixture of deciduous forests and wet meadows, in which you can see deer and brown hares as well as species such as Gekraagde Roodstaart, Fazant and Boomvalk. If you follow the path, you will pass a small area of thistles and reeds, where Grasmus, Sprinkhaanzanger and Tjiftjaf are at home. Early in the morning the call of Koekoek and Fitis can be heard from the woods.
Then you get to the flood lakes and alder brooks. Krakeend breed on the lakes and with luck you will see Rietgors and Lepelaar. In winter Grote Zaagbek, Nonnetje and Tafeleend rest there, during the migration period you can also find various waders such as Oeverloper and species such as Wintertaling.
When you get to the dike, especially in spring, you notice the many Boompieper that fly out of the green areas on the dike. From the dike I have a good overview of the dike foreland, where the singing Veldleeuwerik can hardly be overheard. Other breeding birds are Kneu, Graspieper and Gele Kwikstaart. During migration Roodborsttapuit, Paapje and Tapuit rest in this area. In addition to the wet meadows, there are also depressions in the dike foreland where, with a bit of luck, you can see species such as Zeearend, Tureluur, Groenpootruiter, Scholekster, Kleine Plevier and Witgat.
In winter, the entire area is mainly known for the massive numbers of hibernating Kolgans. In spring and summer it is also worthwhile to be out at dusk to hear Steenuil, Kerkuil and Bosuil calling.
The area can be reached via both the B8 and A59. The best parking lot is "Parkplatz kleine Wardstraße", if this is full, you can also park at the Rheinaue parking lot or at the nearby cemetery, but then you have to walk / drive a little along the street to get into the area. At the first mentioned parking lot you are right in the middle of the action. The walking route that is indicated on the map is about 8 km long.
With a lot of luck you can see exceptional birds like Kwak or Heilige Ibis, both of which have already been reported in the area.
