Observer les oiseaux dans la réserve naturelle de la Petite Camargue Alsacienne (Haut-Rhin)

Alsace’s « Petite Camargue » is the oldest nature reserve in the region, and was created in 1982. It is located in the south of Alsace, on an area of marshland covering a total of 900 hectares. The site is open all year round to the public, on either a « go as you please » basis or for guided tours, and includes three marked-out trails.
The reserve is the perfect place to observe the local fauna and flora. Here, visitors will find no less than 40 tree varieties, typical of the famous « Rhenan Forest », 180 bird species, 16 amphibian species and 40 varieties of dragonflies!
From mid-August to October, it is also possible to watch the migratory birds who stop off here for a few days before continuing their journey.
Georges Muller presents us the most interesting bird species to expect here, and Thierry Becret sent us different photos of the typical habitats of the reserve.
