Opis

This reserve on the River Yare has a mix of wetlands, woodlands and meadows, with great birding all year round. Spring is the best time to see wierzbówka zwyczajna, rokitniczka, świerszczak and kukułka, as well as hearing the booming call of the resident bąk and seeing the display flights of the błotniak stawowy. During summer, you might spot a hunting kobuz or płomykówka (zwyczajna), and the resident zimorodek are most active in the warmer months. In autumn, rybołów are regular on passage and wąsatka flock together, as do thousands of szpak. Winter brings peak wildfowl numbers and more bąk from the continent, plus large flocks of czyż and czeczotka brazowa, occasionally hosting a rarer finch species. The harrier roost also reaches its peak, sometimes including błotniak zbożowy. The reserve also has resident Chinese water deer and otters.
