Protection purpose

The area-related conservation objectives are described differently depending on the species :

Common Common Snipe ( Gallinago gallinago )

Preservation of the wet meadow complexes, especially with litter meadows or extensively used wet meadows, the near-natural brook valleys and moors, the silting areas of stagnant water with light reeds or sedge beds, the habitats without sources of danger such as overhead lines, maintenance of flood hollows, leading ditches that are temporarily flooded, and wet arable fields , of grass, reed and perennial borders as well as maintenance of undisturbed or at least undisturbed breeding sites during the breeding season between February 15 and August 15.

Kingfisher ( Alcedo atthis )

Preservation of near-natural waters, of steep walls and demolition edges made of excavable substrate in the vicinity of the water, of fallen trees suitable for the breeding tube system in the vicinity of the water, of structures that can be used as a seat for hunting such as strong riparian wood with branches hanging over the water, preservation of a Water quality that ensures good visibility for prey, a water dynamic that enables the formation of new bank breaks suitable for nesting, preservation of secondary habitats such as abandoned mining sites with bodies of water and steep banks, the food supply with small fish species and juvenile fish as well as the maintenance of undisturbed or at least undisturbed breeding sites during the breeding season from February 15th to September 15th.

Common tern ( Sterna hirundo )

Common tern with chicks

Preservation of near-natural waters, existing nesting opportunities, the food supply with small fish species and juvenile fish, a water quality that ensures good visibility conditions for prey, as well as undisturbed or at least undisturbed breeding sites during the breeding season from April 1st to September 30th.

Lapwing ( Vanellus vanellus )

Preservation of spacious open cultivated landscapes, pastures, poor meadows with patchy vegetation structure, fallow grassland, arable land with late vegetation development and adjacent grassland, flood troughs, occasionally flooded depressions and wet arable areas, preservation of extensively used wet meadow complexes, natural and natural maintenance of river plains undisturbed or at least undisturbed breeding sites during the breeding season from February 1st to August 31st.

Pochard ( Netta rufina )

Preservation of shallow water lakes or zones with aquatic plant occurrences, in particular chandelier algae and pondweed plants, the silting areas with reed beds, sedge beds and shallow water zones, preservation of sufficient water quality for aquatic plant occurrences, preservation of secondary habitats such as shallow, vegetation-rich ponds, maintenance of a water regime without strong water level fluctuations during breeding and breeding Rearing season (April 15 to September 15) and maintenance of undisturbed or at least low-disturbance breeding or moulting sites during the breeding and rearing season and the moult (June 1 to September 15).

Red kite ( Milvus milvus )

Preservation of diversely structured cultural landscapes with sparse forests, of field trees, large individual trees and rows of trees in the open landscape, of grassland, of old wood islands and old, large-crowned trees with free approach, preservation of trees with clumps, habitats without sources of danger such as non-bird-safe overhead lines and Wind turbines and the maintenance of undisturbed or at least low-disturbance breeding sites during the breeding season from March 1st to August 31st.

Black kite ( Milvus migrans )

Preservation of diversely structured cultural landscapes, of sparse forests, in particular alluvial forests, of field trees, large individual trees and rows of trees in the open landscape, grassland, islands of old wood and old, large-crowned trees with free approach, especially near the forest edge, preservation of natural flowing and still waters, conservation of trees with clumps, of habitats without sources of danger such as non-bird-safe overhead lines and wind turbines as well as maintenance of undisturbed or at least undisturbed breeding sites during the breeding season from March 1st to August 15th.

Spotted Moorhen ( Porzana porzana )

Preservation of silting zones with low-flooded varied herbaceous vegetation such as in transition zones between reed beds and large sedge beds, in the bank area of ​​extensive reed stands and in flooded wet meadows, maintenance of a shallow overflow of habitats during the entire breeding season (March 15 to August 15), preservation of habitats without sources of danger such as overhead lines, preservation of secondary habitats such as waterlogged peat cuttings and drainage ditches with strips of reeds, sedge bulbs and a loose herbaceous layer as well as undisturbed or at least undisturbed breeding sites.
