This is what the Zwillbrock Biological Station writes:
"The Krosewicker Field is around 20 hectares in size and is located just under a kilometer north of the Zwillbrock Biological Station on the German-Dutch border. It is the result of a project that was carried out for the North Rhine-Westphalia Foundation and is fully owned by them. Together with the Krosewicker Border Forest to the north, it is part of the European bird sanctuary "Moors and Heaths of Western Münsterland".In the area, fields were sown as grassland and intensive grassland was converted into extensive grassland, a dense network of hedges and rows of trees as well as a large number of small still waters and pools were created. Today it presents itself as a traditionally used, small-scale grassland area with an outstanding species inventory of rare animals and plants for its size."In the "Krosewicker Field" the flamingos can be observed foraging in the summer months.
