Beschrijving
Located South of Culemborg near the small village of Tricht, the "Nieuwe Hoeven" is a fairly small area consisting of a semi open landscape with pastures and damp meadows, surrounded by forests. Small reedbeds are located on the eastern side of the area. Especially in Spring and during migration in both Spring and Autumn, many species of songbird and wader can be seen here.
The fairly wet meadows are a great spot for species like Kievit, Tureluur and Grutto. Bruine Kiekendief can often be seen hunting above these pastures. Some parts of the area are very wet, which make them a great spot for migrating waders, like Witgat and Groenpootruiter. Multiple pairs of Kleine Plevier can be seen here. Besides waders, it's a great spot for observing Waterpieper.
The small reedbeds on the eastern side of the area are a good spot for Rietgors, Blauwborst and Kleine Karekiet. Sometimes Waterral can be heard too and, with a bit of luck, a Porseleinhoen shows up.
The area is also great for foraging Ooievaar and in winter, fairly large numbers of Grote Zilverreiger and geese can be seen here too.
