Het Goor Ponds, Dessel
Highlight • Lake
The Goor roughly comprises three large ponds, two of which have a wide reed belt, a depression within a dike (probably an unfinished pond), alder coppice near the Kempisch Kanaal, forests with Canada poplars and damp meadows.
The Goor is a suitable habitat for numerous breeding bird species, such as bluethroat, barn swallow, tree creeper, tree pipit, pochard, mallard, wren, marsh warbler, blackbird, little frog, yellowhammer, goldcrest and bullfinch. Inventories from 1980-1981 showed that some rare species, such as marsh harrier, blue heron, bittern and little bittern, as breeding birds have disappeared compared to earlier inventories.
