Description
Open heathland by the coast. One of the best places to find relativly rare birds on Zealand. Korshage is best known for its spring migration, especially with winds from the east and south-east. However, in autumn there is a chance of seeing many species of seabirds which are driven into the Kattegat during the autumn storms, for example Northern Fulmar, shearwaters, Σούλα (του Βορά) and skuas.
A large number of different bird species fly out over Korshage on spring migration. Many raptors are seen, for example (Ευρωπαϊκός) Σφηκιάρης, Ψαλιδιάρης, (Ευρωπαϊκός) Θαλασσαετός, Καλαμόκιρκος, Χειμωνόκιρκος, Διπλοσάϊνο, (Κοινό) Ξεφτέρι, (Κοινή) Γερακίνα, Χιονογερακίνα, Ψαραετός, Νανογέρακο and Δεντρογέρακο. (Ευρωπαϊκός) Γερανός also pass overhead. Nearly 1000 have been seen on a single day. Some bird species migrate in enormous concentrations, for example pigeons: numbers of up to 15,000 (Κοινή) Φάσσα per day are not unusual. Some Φασσοπερίστερο can be seen in the flocks. Crows and thrushes are also seen in large numbers, and (Κοινός) Σπίνος and Χειμωνόσπινος can form large flocks. Other migrating birds include Βαλτόμπουφος and Χιονοκότσυφας. Στραβολαίμης can be spotted staging here under migration. Along the coast, geese and various dabbling ducks and diving ducks fly past. Also Αετομάχος breed on the open areas at Korshage.
