Beschrijving

Herrebro Våtmark is characterized by a rich wetland birdlife, with noisy summer nights and intriguing bird areas. Over 210 bird species has been observed on the sight, with most recent rarities such as Kleine Zilverreiger, Terekruiter, Geoorde Fuut, Koereiger and Zwartkopmeeuw. At Herrebro wetland there is a bird tower with a great view over the area, a bird hide with good opportunities to close contact with wetland birds and footbridges in the marshlands for visitors. At the adjacent old local dump site, Herrebrotippen, visitors can wander through intriguing bird areas with dams, canals and trenches.

Typical wetland species such as Dodaars, Kuifduiker, Zomertaling, Slobeend, Waterhoen, Tureluur, Kleine Plevier and Kokmeeuw can be found nesting at Herrebro wetland. In addition, great amounts of ducks and small flocks of swans, geese and waders of species such as Wilde Zwaan, Brandgans, Pijlstaart, Smient, Wintertaling, Zwarte Ruiter, Kemphaan and Bosruiter can be seen in the area. Kleine Bonte Specht and Staartmees nests in the adjacent marshlands. The high amount and variety of bird species also attracts bird of prey such as Zeearend, Bruine Kiekendief and Boomvalk who regularly visits the area.

The old local dump site, Herrebrotippen, is a tip-top bird site for nocturnal songsters such as Kwartelkoning, Sprinkhaanzanger, Bosrietzanger och Noordse Nachtegaal. In addition, Struikrietzanger and Krekelzanger flodsångare has been visiting occasionally. Nesting Bosuil can be found in the adjacent forests. In the autum, the site is visited by migrating birds such as Bokje, Blauwborst and Roodkeelpieper. Smaller flocks of Barmsijs, Putter and Frater can be seen wintering in the area as well as Klapekster and Ruigpootbuizerd.
