Beschrijving

On the way to my holiday destination I ended up at the Rothsee in Bavaria. Near the A9. You can park close by. The lake is divided into two parts with a piece of nature reserve. In this area you can find a large colony of Blauwe Reiger. Other birds you can see around the Rothsee are Ringmus, Blauwe Reiger, Zwarte Roodstaart, Glanskop, Grote Lijster, Grauwe Klauwier, Zwarte Specht, Koolmees, Tjiftjaf, Vink, Zwarte Wouw and Geelgors.

On the southern shore of the second part there is an information pavilion of the State Association for Bird Protection (LBV). In summer and winter, in spring and autumn, interested visitors can now get tips and information. Various display boards provide information.

The Rothsee is one of the better places in the area for resting water birds in winter (up to 3000 in October / November), including often rarer species ( Topper, Grote Zee-eend and divers). Plus, almost anything can pop up during the migratory season - when the water level is low and the mud banks are exposed, waders find perfect conditions. In recent years, the Rothsee has attracted a huge list of rarities, notably terns (annual Reuzenstern and Noordse Stern , but extremely rare species such as the Bengaalse Stern are also observed) and waders ( Paarse Strandloper, Kanoet and others).
