Birds of prey are a special group of birds.
Birds of prey are a special group of birds. At the top of the food chain, sharp claws and a hooked beak and masterful flyers: it is not difficult to imagine why this group of species captures the imagination of many people!
Until deep into the 20th century, they were mercilessly persecuted and birds of prey were a rare sight at the time. Thanks to legal protection, they are present in the landscape again. You can also observe birds of prey in the Zwin. During this themed walk, you will get to know them better. At the end of August, there is a chance of quite a few species, such as Buzzard, Torenvalk of Sperwer, but also Bruine Kiekendief, Wespendief of Visarend. Birds of prey are often difficult to observe, high in the sky. So definitely bring your binoculars to be able to search well with the guide!
