Youngest part of Amsterdamse Bos (Amsterdam Forest), an open terrain with bushes, grass and water. Near Schiphol Airport and Amsterdam.
The Schinkelbos is the youngest part of Amsterdamse Bos. It consists of rugged, fairly open terrain with occasional impenetrable scrub, lots of reeds, puddles of water. In this less known and less accessible part of the Amsterdamse Bos are many and sometimes special birds that can rest, forage and breed here. For example, there may be Белозобый дрозд during spring migration. The Варакушка is a breeding bird in the reeds, just like the Тростниковая камышевка and the Камышевка-барсучок. Sometimes you hear a Обыкновенный сверчок or a Соловьиный сверчок, and the Усатая синица also show up occasionally. There is a nice collection of waterfowl in the area, including Красноголовый нырок, Широконоска and Малая поганка, sometimes you hear a Водяной пастушок or even a Большая выпь, and Бекас and other waders are also possible. Also chance on Перепелятник, Славка-мельничек and Гаршнеп.
Easy to reach. Parking spot at the entrance.
