Description
The Weingartener Moor is an interesting place to visit and can host a good variety of bird species. The varying levels of water throughout the year adds a certain dynamic and an element of surprise. When there are open areas of water, there are good numbers of geese and ducks present. siva gos, kanadska gos, mlakarica, konopnica, sivka, čopasta črnica, kreheljc, liska and mali ponirek are all regularly seen here.
Receding water levels and muddy fringes can attract birds such as kozica and pikasti martinec. In August 2023, a juvenile kamenjar was even observed here! The surrounding woodland is home to a good number of species and is a good place to look for carar, srednji detel and mali detel. If you are lucky, you may see a škrjančar hunting dragonflies in summer.
