The Schwanenweiher, like many bodies of water in this region, is currently completely covered with duckweed or duckweed. Ducks, fish and turtles have so far shown an interest in the plants.
However, the high nutrient content makes the plant attractive as animal feed or as a raw material for biogas and bioethanol production. Although there are some algae that have similar properties, they are more difficult to harvest than duckweed, which is simply scooped from the surface of the water.

The Schwanenweiher, an idyllic shallow body of water, right on the corner of Hermann-Löns. But also during our visit: Unfortunately there were only ducks to be found on the "green area". Still very nice there!
