Beskrivning
Although the intensive management as an angling pond reduces its attractivity for a number of waterbird species, nevertheless the pond of Meiseldorfer Teich features important numbers of some specialized breeding species and migrants can turn up at any time. Due to the long lasting monitoring effort in the region, the pond exhibits an impressive species list.
Commonly seen or heard breeding species are dvärgrördrom, vattenrall, brun kärrhök, sävsångare, kärrsångare, rörsångare, trastsångare, vassångare and Sävsparv. The open agricultural landscape around the pond hosts a small population of ängshök in some years, as well as some breeding tofsvipa and rapphöna.
Non-breeding species, which can be observed often, are gråhäger, ägretthäger, Storskarv and drillsnäppa but also scarcer birds show up regularly, like havsörn, natthäger or svarttärna. Rarities found during the past decades include storlom, sjöorre, stäpphök, örnvråk, myrspov, brednäbbad simsnäppa, skräntärna, vattensångare and snösparv.
However, on an average visit often not more than the local breeders can be seen, so the finding of interesting migrants or vagrants requires many visits or big luck.

Tillgänglighet
There is a paved track to the southern end of the pond, but driving is only permitted for locals. It is best to park the car in Meiseldorf and walk the approx. 15-20 min to the pond. Click on the P in the map for directions. Tracks lead around nearly the whole waterbody, but please respect the access restrictions, as the pond itself is private and should not be entered without permission. It is, however, not necessary to violate any restrictions in order to see the whole water surface. The best overview is provided when looking from the south corner of the pond.
