Description

The bushes on the banks of the old meander Oude Leie Grammene attract many different songbirds. The walking path along the meander is therefore attractive during the breeding season for Silvie de câmp, Silvie cu cap negru and Silvie mică, which have their singing post in the bushes. The reed beds along the meander are home to Lăcar de stuf and Lăcar mic with Lăcar de mlaștină in the intermediate zones.

The overhanging willow branches attract Stârc de noapte every year in the migration season around August. The head of the meander bordering the river Leie is the foraging area of Chiră de baltă and Pescăruș râzător and Corcodel mare, Rață moțată and Lișiță breed on the meander every year.

_________________________

Nederlands: Deze oude meander van de rivier de Leie ligt midden in een landbouwgebied. De struiken op de oevers trekken veel verschillende zangvogels aan. Het wandelpad langs de meander is daardoor in het broedseizoen aantrekkelijk voor Silvie de câmp, Silvie cu cap negru en Silvie mică die in de struiken hun zangpost hebben. De rietpartijen langs de meander herbergen dan weer Lăcar de stuf en Lăcar mic met in de tussenzones Lăcar de mlaștină.

De overhangende wilgentakken trekken jaarlijks vanaf het trekseizoen rond augustus Stârc de noapte aan. De kop van de meander grenzend aan de Leie is het foerageergebied van Chiră de baltă en Pescăruș râzător en op de meander broeden er jaarlijks Corcodel mare, Rață moțată en Lișiță.
