Description
As a controlled flooding area, constructed as compensation for some new developments, the Westerplas features a seasonal wetland with open water, reed, mudflads, ... You have nice viewing opportunities from the trail around the wetland. It attracts some wintering ducks, but the highlight is spring migration when waders (like kalužiak sivý, kalužiak močiarny, kalužiak červenonohý, kulík riečný, šišila bocianovítá, brehár čiernochvostý...) and ducks (it is a reliable site for kačica chrapačka) stop at this site. Also other migrants might be seen off course (like lastovička obyčajná, belorítka obyčajná, dážďovník obyčajný,trasochvost žltý, ,drozd kolohrivec). During summer and fall the site is often dry with few birds around.

Access
From the parking (See the map) you have easy acces. There is a circular trail possible but birding is along the wetland, which is only a very small part of the circular trail.
