At Salzderhelden just before the barrage there is a stork nest with offspring.

I'd like to take this opportunity to clearly declare my allegiance to the anti-stork league: This isn't a highlight. Rather, it's a misguided exaggeration from a bygone era. The storks, which have unfortunately been settling here in very large numbers for many, many years, are undermining the conservation purpose of the area by feeding primarily on the young ground-nesting birds in the polders. In summer, you can regularly see them walking through the meadows in long lines (I counted up to 23 birds), an organized army of animals that are unfortunately overrated in this country, simply preying on what we painstakingly protect, including the corncrake, whose main breeding population is developing here in the Leinepolder.
