meaning

The “Schmiechener See” bird sanctuary is located in a clay-filled tub that was originally eroded by the Danube. It is the most important breeding occurrence of the potted moorhen and one of the most important breeding areas for knack, teal, pochard and pochard as well as the little moorhen in Baden-Württemberg.
