Opis
The Baggersee Grötzingen is a former gravel pit that is now part nature reserve, part recreational (fishing, bathing zone). In winter there are usually good numbers of czernica, krakwa, cyraneczka, perkoz dwuczuby, czapla siwa and kormoran. They are sometimes joined by smaller numbers or individual głowienka, gągoł, Płaskonos or mandarynka.
Most years, some more uncommon or rare species appear at some point during the winter. In recent years, ogorzałka, perkoz rdzawoszyi, markaczka and uhla have all been seen here. The woods surrounding the lake are a good place to look out for less common woodland species, such as dzięcioł zielonosiwy, dzięciołek and grubodziób.
