Beschrijving

Only 20 kilometers south of Berlin's outskirts lies the nature park Nuthe-Nieplitz. The humid lowlands of the rivers Nuthe and Nieplitz, forests, farmland, lakes and small villages are rich in birds. The meadows, pastures and flood plains in the lowlands of the watercourse Pfefferfließ are visited by many species of birds as rest and food areas. In autumn and spring many Kraanvogel as well as geese can be seen. Zwarte Wouw and Bruine Kiekendief are also looking for food here. From the Observation Tower at Lake Schwanensee it's good birding in every season. More then 150 different birdspecies are allready seen from the tower. In spring and autumn migratory birds rest, in the summer waterfowl raise their young and the Visarend catches fish. Large groups of geese are resident in the winter season. Kraanvogel and egrets can be seen year-round. An information panel in the tower shows the occurring bird species. Nice birds that also can bee seen are Zeearend, Boomvalk, Grauwe Klauwier, Rode Wouw and Wielewaal.
