Description
The various biotopes of lake Limsjön with abundant reeds in the southwest, extensive meadows in the north and with sedge hedges and shore meadows all around attract many different bird species. Around the lake, an approx. 7 km long hiking trail leads to the various bird observation towers and the bird hide. Early spring migrants are attracted by the open fields and open water on the lake such as Whooper Swan, Stock Dove, Eurasian Skylark and Northern Lapwing. Groups of Barnacle Goose sometimes rest during March-April. During April-May, pretty much all of Sweden's waders can be seen during migration. Later in the spring there is an intense chorus of singers and from the nesting islands the colony of Black-headed Gull can be heard and in their shelter ducks and Slavonian Grebe nest.
