Beschrijving
The castle ponds are located on the eastern edge of the town of Ellwangen, in a small valley with a stream and are partly surrounded by a dense layer of bushes, as well as deciduous trees, including several old oaks. On the adjacent northern slope there is a meadow orchard with old fruit trees.
At the ponds you can observe various species of ducks and IJsvogel. Grote Bonte Specht, Boomklever, and occasionally Middelste Bonte Specht can be found in the old oak trees. In the orchards you can observe Bonte Vliegenvanger and Grauwe Vliegenvanger in summer, and Keep, Appelvink and Koperwiek in winter.
