New nature reserve attracts rare birds, dragonflies


This 2012 Dutch video is about nature reserve Beuningse Uiterwaarden, in Gelderland province, not far from Nijmegen city. It shows birds, konik horses and other animals there. Eg, great crested newts live there as well.

There has been reconstruction early this year. That attracted nesting little ringed plovers.

And rare damselfly and dragonfly species: goblet-marked damselfly; lesser emperor dragonfly; red-veined darter; and scarlet dragonfly.
