Nice, a picture to be pleased that there are these ponds between Nesselbach and Tägerig. And that includes the herd of water buffalo near the hamlets at Tägeriger shooting range.

April 19, 2026, Birdwatching Hide at Flachsee Waterbird Reserve

Yesterday, through a highly magnified pair of binoculars on one of these islands, I was able to observe five cormorants in close harmony: Magnificent! The birdlife here is truly diverse - a magnifying glass is actually a must. But the photos stored here by Komoot users are also great in this highlight - especially the photo of the kingfisher, which I unfortunately haven't had the chance to see yet...
