Beskrivning

Tiendweg, named after the road on the southern side of the area, is an area within a large typical peat meadow landscape, called "Polder de Nesse". The area consists of a mixture of intensive and (narrow) extensive pastures on which cattle is held. The area is surrounded by a large ditch in which many waterfowl are present, like vigg, snatterand and large numbers of sothöna. Also Smådopping and skäggdopping are present. In the smaller ditches between the pastures, species like Kricka, årta and Skedand are found. In spring and summer, herons, like purpurhäger and gråhäger hunt for frogs. fisktärna and small numbers of svarttärna can be seen hunting above the ditches after which they return to their nests in the surrounding area.

During the breeding season, the pastures are used as breeding habitat for several species of waders, like rödspov, rödbena, tofsvipa and storspov. Besides waders, species like sånglärka, ängspiplärka and gulärla also breed here. stenskvätta is often seen on the pastures during migration. brun kärrhök hunts above these pastures. Often, Pilgrimsfalk can be seen on the power lines, overlooking the area. In the northern part, a small forested area is present in which ormvråk breeds. Also duvhök has been spotted here multiple times, and maybe even breeds there. On the fences surrounding the pastures, species like svarthakad buskskvätta can be spotted.

On the southwestern edge, the area is adjacent to the village of Ouderkerk aan den IJssel. There's a small park which is used by many common species of songbird. Especially during autumn migration, species like brandkronad kungsfågel and kungsfågel can turn up here. Also kungsfiskare can be seen around the large ditch in this corner.

On the northeastern part of the area, a "boezem" is present, called "Berkenwoudsche Lage Boezem". This type of landscape is used to collect water from the surounding pastures and dispose it off towards a river, in this case the "Hollandsche IJssel" river. The "boezem" consists of mainly wetland area with low forested parts and local reedbeds. The area attracts many waterbirds, but is especially good for waders during migration. Common species are rödbena, gluttsnäppa, brushane and drillsnäppa, but also scarcer species can be present here, like svartsnäppa, kärrsnäppa and kustpipare. In the reedbeds, common species of reedbird breed, like sävsångare, rörsångare, blåhake and Sävsparv. If you're lucky, a vassångare or cettisångare can be heard. In the smaller bushes, species like härmsångare and ärtsångare can be present.

In winter, the area is mainly used by large flocks of geese and swans, like bläsgås, vitkindad gås and knölsvan, and larger numbers of ägretthäger can be present. Sometimes blå kärrhök uses the area as foraging habitat.

The area is easy accessable on foot, by bike and by car. The tarmac road on the southern part of the area leads to a deadend, but you can park your car at the end of the road. The best way to observe de area is to use the car and stop often to check the surrounding area until you reach the bicycle road at the end (dead end for cars). From there, you can make a walk next to the "boezem" to observe the wet areas on the other side of the large ditch. You can start or end with the park on the southern part of the area to look for migrants during migration.
