Description
Due to the variation of pine and deciduous forests, extensive grasslands, thorny bushes, heathland and the sandy underground the natura-2000 reserve Heidebos contains some of the most regional unique species. The most elusive by far is the Caprimulg, which you can hear in the area on the right moments of the year. In the pine and deciduous forests you can find almost all bird species related to forests in Flanders like Pițigoi moțat , Muscar negru, Pițigoi de brădet, Țiclean, Aușel cu cap galben, Ciocănitoare neagră, Huhurez mic , Sitar de pădure. Some of the most remarkable predatory birds also breed in this nature reserve, like Uliu porumbar and Viespar. In the more semi-open parts like the heathlands you can find Ciocârlie de pădure , Codroș de pădure and Muscar sur.
