Birdwatching at Bucher Stausee

Highlight • Lake

Here you can read which birds live here in the "pool" from the lake. Quite interesting and educational. There are always people here with huge telephoto lenses and are fascinated by the bird life

Of course, there is a lot going on at the Bucher reservoir on Saturdays, but because my mom wanted to go to the craft shop in Westhausen, this lovely trip was a good idea. The café was totally packed in the wonderful weather 🌞😅

The new bridge has already been built and the lake is currently being dammed up again. Nice opportunity to walk about 1.5 meters below the usual water surface directly on the shore 😀

Unfortunately, for us as dog owners, it wasn't such a nice walk... Because dogs aren't welcome here, you have to take a long detour along the main road to get to the lawns and on the other side of the lake there isn't even the slightest place where a dog could quickly go into the water to cool off.
