Here, in the middle of the Lippeaue west of Lippborg, you can experience the dynamics of a floodplain live. The wide grassland areas and water bodies are completely flooded during high water. When the water level drops, the still waters and wet depressions remain a magnet for numerous bird species. During the migratory seasons in the months of March to May and August to October, there is a lot of animal activity here. Ducks and geese congregate with various species of wading birds. Lapwings and spoonbills can be observed in spring during courtship. Since 2010 a pair of white storks has been breeding on a mast close to the observation hut. The partners greet each other at the Horst with loud clattering. On balmy summer nights, tree frogs can also be heard here.
