Description
The nature reserve of Rümlandteich und Methorstteich is a beautiful area to observe water and forest bird species. You can make larger and smaller walks via hiking trails. Both ponds are drained temporarily (especially in autumn/winter) and then offer particularly interesting observation opportunities (wading birds, wintering Fâsă de munte). Codalb breed here and can be observed regularly. Buhai de baltă occasionally call in the reed belt of the Rümlandteich. In the adjacent forest areas, all species of woodpecker are found ( Ciocănitoare neagră, Ghionoaie verde, Ciocănitoare pestriță mare, Ciocănitoare de stejar and Ciocănitoare pestriță mică), as well as Buhă, Șoimul rândunelelor, Viespar, Muscar negru and, in some years, Muscar mic. In the winter months, many Lebădă de iarnă often stay here during the day. Both bodies of water are also home to 200 Lebădă de iarnă and Lebădă mică and up to 800 Gârliță mare and Tundra Bean Goose. In the adjacent grassland you can observe Sfrâncioc mare, Erete vânăt and many geese in winter.
