About Wervicq
Wervicq lies in the flat countryside of West Flanders, close to the border with France and not far from the cities of Kortrijk and Lille. The landscape is mostly open farmland, canals and scattered villages, which suits large birds that hunt over fields and water. The town sits at a low altitude, so the surroundings are green and level for much of the year.
What you can watch
The camera shows a peregrine falcon nest, so the most rewarding moments are usually when the adults arrive with food or when the young birds become active. Activity depends on the season and the weather, and birds may be out of view for long stretches. Early mornings and late afternoons are often the times when the parents are most active around the nest.
Visiting and nearby
The climate is mild and damp, with cool winters and moderate summers, and spring and early summer are the best seasons for watching nesting activity. Bondues, La Madeleine and Lille are all within about 20 kilometres, so a visit to the area can be combined with other sightings. Nearby cameras in Kortrijk and Lille are listed on this page for comparison.
