Hainaut  >  Belgium

Built in the seventies, this network of hydroelectric dams doubles as a popular tourist resort. In the winter, dozens of species of waterfowl can be found here.

Opis

The artificial lakes produced by the dams cover a large superficy (several square kilometres). The entire area is surrounded by trails and there are many excellent vantage points looking over the various lakes. Furthermore, there are many parking areas, bicycle rentals, and several restaurants around the lakes.

The largest and deepest lake is the westernmost Plate Taille, which in the winter frequently harbours uncommon species such as the zausznik, lodowiec, nur czarnoszyi, or uhla. Hundreds of birds of more common species are present on the water at most hours of the day, such as cyraneczka, czernica, and świstun.

The southernmost lake Falemprise is commonly occupied in the winter by gągoł, głowienka, and occasionnally small groups of łabędź krzykliwy.

The "middle" lake, l'Eau d'Heure proper, may have in addition to the above species stray individuals of the species ogorzałka, bielaczek, nurogęś or occasionally geese such as gęgawa and gęś białoczelna.

The woods surrounding the entire area are also quite rich in species, including notably czyż, gil, dzięcioł średni, and kowalik.

The entire site is also replete with seagulls of various species and common waterfowl such as krzyżówka, czernica, łyska, krakwa and czernica.

Unfortunately because of the important disturbances by high tourism in the spring and summer, there is little to observe at those seasons.
