Geflügelmastanlagen und Kiesgrube Oppin

Sachsen-Anhalt  >  Germany

Unconventional birding spot, that can at first seem very unwelcoming, but harbours one of the area's last breeding sites of Cotovia-de-poupa.

Descrição

The Geflügelmastanlagen und Kiesgrube Oppin area is characterised by industrial use. Gravel and sand pits and storage, and, in dark irony for a birding website: industrial poultry production sites. It is surrounded by agricultural land and to the west some uncultivated grassland.

The poultry buildings are fenced off and the vegetation is kept short. This seems to be one of the reasons why Cotovia-de-poupa breeds here. In the bushes along the roadside Pardal-montez, Papa-amoras-comum, Trigueirão and Pintarroxo-comum can be observed. In the fields around the site alvéola-amarela, Faisão and Laverca are a regular sight. During migration Chasco-cinzento and Borrelho-pequeno-de-coleira visit the barren gravel areas.

Note: The premises of the companies in the area can not be entered under any circumstances! It is only possilbe to watch from the outside. Therefore binoculars or even a scope are recommended.

On the way to the poultry premises from the parking spot on the map, keep your eyes open for overflying Abelharuco-comum, peneireiro-de-dorso-malhado / peneireiro and other birds of prey.
