Beskrivning
The plain between Langau and Wolfsbach is one of the best spots in Austria to observe wintering raptors like fjällvråk or blå kärrhök. It is also one of very few places, where stäpphök has been observed more regularly. havsörn breeds in the vicinity. Rare visitors on passage, like mindre skrikörn , örnvråk, tatarfalk or fjällpipare can be observed with luck. During migration season it's a stopover site for huge flocks of tofsvipa and ljungpipare and some storspov. But also passerines like buskskvätta or stenskvätta. A small flood retention pond often attracts different waterbirds. The site is quite under-birded and therefore could provide surprises in the future (like stäppvipa, fjällabb and others).
Detaljer
Tillgänglighet
The site can be explored by bike or car, as there are many dirt roads and some paved roads across the plain. Birding should be done from the roads (except the main road crossing the plain) because all the surrounding fields are private agricultural land. If you stay near the car, parking on most of the roads is no problem. If you leave a car, only park it in places where you don't block access to the fields.
