Description
Naturschutzgebiet Hasenfeld and Rheinvorland is located between Eversael and Ossenberg. At the beginning you cross open cultural landscapes and meadows, where species such as Канюк or in winter Белолобый гусь are at home. Then you climb the dike and get an overview of the partially flooded meadows, and you immediately notice the singing Полевой жаворонок. In winter it is teeming with Белолобый гусь and Гуменник.
Then you come to the first lake, the water level of which is determined exclusively by precipitation. The migration time is definitely the most productive time here. Then you can, among other things see Малый зуёк, Большой улит as well as Скопа. In winter there are species like Луток, Красноголовый нырок or Большой крохаль.
The path continues through a landscape of wet meadow and floodplain, which is the busiest in summer, for example here you will find Полевой жаворонок, Луговой конёк, Жёлтая трясогузка as well as Обыкновенный фазан. Large swarms of Свиязь also stay here at migration time. Then you reach the flood lakes, here you can find species like Большая белая цапля, Бекас, Травник and Большой веретенник.
On the other side of the dike begins a landscape of open space, isolated trees and bushes. Directly on the dike is a colony of Серая цапля, further inland you can find species such as Обыкновенный жулан, Серая славка, Обыкновенная овсянка and Черныш. The way back leads through fields and meadows, which are not so productive in summer, but in winter you can find Восточный тундровый гусь here. Alternatively, you can of course walk back along the dike.
