Descrição
The Elfrather See is a lake that is mostly interesting in winter for wintering waterfowl, mainly diving ducks such as Zarro-negrinha, Zarro-comum and others. Also Merganso-grande can be seen quite reliably in winter. In the winter 2021 / 2022 Pato-de-cauda-afilada spent several weeks on the lake. There are many trees and hedges around the lake, which contain a wide variety of common song birds. The main attraction are the winter waterfowl, though.
