Opis
At the foot of the Vosges, south of Thann, the lake of Michelbach dam (located in the town of the same name) was created in the 1980s in order to capture water from Doller and Michelbach to regulate the supply of the groundwater from which the Mulhouse conurbation draws its drinking water.
Preservation of water resources and diversity of living things going hand in hand, the body of water quickly became a haven of life. Thanks to its classification as a “voluntary nature reserve”, which includes former plowing converted into meadows as well as small forest portions, colonization by avifauna is steadily increasing there, and its vocation of welcoming migratory birds is asserting itself . Bird watching is interesting all year round.
In spring, it is the nesting of łabędź niemy, łyska, krzyżówka, perkoz dwuczuby that attracts attention. The gąsiorek is found in orchards south of the water.
Summer is the good season for stopovers of waders and the passage of rybitwa rzeczna. At the end of summer and in autumn, with the drop in the level of the water, mud flats appear and are favorable for many species of shorebirds (biegus zmienny, biegus krzywodzioby, biegus malutki, brodziec piskliwy, kwokacz, kszyk and rarities are always possible such as biegus mały, ) and herons; zausznik, rybitwa czarna and rybołów are also frequent the site.
Finally, in winter, it is easy to observe kormoran, nurogęś, for which the Michelbach site has become the reference extra-Rhine site in Alsace. Rare birds are recorded each year during this season: szlachar, uhla, divers, ogorzałka, ... You can also search for remiz among the potrzos.
A beautiful walk begins from the parking lot (indicated by a sign), and takes the two dikes; a path goes around the body of water passing through a wood and an orchard. This circuit can be done in any season, except when the water is frozen.
