Breeding bird colony of the blue heron

During the breeding season, this additional walking path is closed to avoid disturbing, among other things, the colony of blue herons. The forest provides shelter for the green woodpecker and the tree falcon. And a pair of storks. You can get a good view of their nest with the parent birds from the cycle path Polderstraat at restaurant D'hoeve. In winter, the area is visited by woodcocks and siskins. Throughout the year, birds of prey such as the sparrowhawk and buzzard can be found here.
