Descrição

In winter, the Ottersaat area is occupied by many species of ducks, like Piadeira, Arrabio, Pato-trombeteiro and geese, mainly Ganso-de-faces-negras, but always keep a lookout for the White-bellied (ssp. hrota) and the Black (ssp. nigricans). They can play hard to catch, but a real treat if you find one. In spring, breeding birds like Andorinha-do-mar-comum, Alfaiate and Guincho-comum take over the area. If you look closely, you may find a Rola-do-mar. It is a stone's throw from Dijkmanshuizen, described elsewhere on this website.

_________________________

Nederlands: Ottersaat is een voormalige dijkdoorbraak waar veel vogels broeden, maar de plek trekt ook veel trekvogels. Het is gelegen aan het begin van de Texelse Vogelboulevard. In de winter wordt het Ottersaat ingenomen door vele soorten eenden, zoals Piadeira, Arrabio, Pato-trombeteiro en ganzen, voornamelijk Ganso-de-faces-negras, maar let ook altijd op de Witbuikrotgans (ssp. hrota) en de Zwarte Rotgans (ssp. nigricans). Ze kunnen moeilijk te vinden zijn, maar is een mooie beloning als je er een vindt. In het voorjaar nemen broedvogels als Andorinha-do-mar-comum, Alfaiate en Guincho-comum het gebied over. Als je goed kijkt, vind je misschien een Rola-do-mar. Het gebied ligt op een steenworp afstand van Dijkmanshuizen, dat elders op deze website is beschreven.
