Description
The Vuosaari golf course attracts migrating birds in early spring and as soon as the snow starts to melt from the hill tops, the first (Κοινή) Σιταρήθρα start to arrive. Αγριόκυκνος, Canada Goose, Σταχτόχηνα and Barnacle Goose like to stop to rest and eat on the fields too. Sometimes one can spot birds like (Μεγάλο) Καλαμοτσίχλονο, Χιονοτσίχλονο and Lapland Bunting there too. Διπλοσάϊνο is a year round sight flying a top the field and sometimes Βραχοκιρκίνεζο and Διπλοκεφαλάς hunt in the area too.
