Description
Langer See is decent for waterbirds and birds that rely on water. Spring is the best time to visit, since you'll want to see Тростниковая камышевка and Тростниковая овсянка. Despite being a park with many people, Камышница are very common, and will show up in groups to forage right next to the path. This makes Langer See a pretty good place for Камышница photography. Чомга are also relatively common, and you may be able to spot them with chicks during the correct season. Listen for Тростниковая камышевка, they're easier to hear than see, and watch for Кряква, Серый гусь, and Лысуха.

Access
Langer See is located in Böblingen. You can park on the street near the bridge. Press P on the map for directions. Then cross the bridge to get to the other side, where Камышница are oftentimes easily spotted. It is easy to walk on foot (the circular walk is about 2 km). The area can be explored relatively quickly, and so would make a good 'lunchbreak location'.
