Description

The area of Haarzuilens is known for the castle. Just outside the castle gardens, a beautiful nature reserve arises. nature has been restored since 2000. Forests have been planted, but a beautiful wet area has also been created. The area consists of three sections: Klein Nieuwkoop, Het Wielrevelt and Parkbos. Various birds can be seen here: a lot of falcons, but I have also spotted rare birds here such as Şarkıcı mukallit and Çeltikçi. The area is also home to colonies of Gri balýkçýl and Karabatak. Other nice species are Alaca Baykuş, Yalıçapkını and Kocabaş. Also Çamurçulluğu, Kızılbacak, Sarı mukallit, Benekli sinekkapan, dağ baştankarası, Kuzgun and Bülbül can be seen here.
