Karpfenteich

The bird carp pond consists of three due to inflows and outflows connected parts, which lies in the western part of the bird forest. The lower pond (I) has a small island that serves many birds as nesting place because of the location. The main flow via a pipe connection from the Bogensee. Outflow is via a lock in the Lietz ditch which leads to Panke.

Depending on the inflow and precipitation, the extent of the ponds varies greatly. The entire area around the pond is shallow, swampy and promotes the formation of peat.

Fauna

In addition to the easy auszumachenden birds coot, mallard and swan, there are at least ten other species. There are eleven known species of fish in these ponds. The most important are tench, carp, perch, pike and eel.

Flora

The second half of the lower pond is little surrounded by trees, but by strong growth with reeds and sedges poorly accessible. The upper part of the lower pond, and the upper pond, however, are more lined with trees.

Management

The ponds are managed by the fishing club (ASV ) Berlin-Buch.
