    From the centrally located observation hut you have a wonderful view of the heart of the Windheimer Marsch.

    From here you can make exciting nature observations in all seasons and in all weathers without disturbing the wild animals.

    Particular attention was paid to ensuring that the hut was largely barrier-free.

      A measure that is unique to the Weseraue bird sanctuary is the refilling or removal of soil from several former excavation areas to a significantly lower level, close to the groundwater. This has created large areas that are flooded for longer periods of the year and thus provide a habitat for rare animals and plants that are typical of river floodplains. The mud banks, which occasionally dry out, have numerous specialized plant species. The extensive water change zones within the bird sanctuary are a particular attraction for numerous wader species, the so-called waders.

      In order to keep the valuable habitats open, frugal cattle and horses graze over large areas in the "Windheimer Marsch".

      Various waders and water birds such as little ringed plover, dunlin, oystercatcher, greenshank, redshank, Temminck's stint, common sandpiper, garganey, shoveler and teal can be found here at times.
