Description
In and around Indalsälvens delta around 195 birds have been recorded. In around the delta there is a often variety of waterfowl. (Ευρωπαϊκό) Κιρκίρι, (Ευρωπαϊκό) Σφυριχτάρι and (Ευρωπαϊκή) Μαυρόπαπια are often seen. The shallow beaches attract waders, espcially when the water levels are low. Some of the common waders are Χαλικοκυλιστής, Κοκκινοσκέλης, Λασποσκαλίδρα, Μαχητής, (Ευρωπαϊκός) Στρειδοφάγος, and Ακτίτης. Sometimes rarer waders like Λευκοσκαλίδρα, Θαλασσολιμόζα, Κοκκινοσκαλίδρα and Αργυροπούλι can be seen.
Next to the delta lies the area of Fagerviksfälten, that has fields that geese, waders and passerine birds often use as resting grounds. Sometimes the rare Νανόχηνα can be spotted in the spring. Other birds who often use the field as feeding grounds are Pink-footed Goose, (Κοινό) Φανέτο and Twite.
The large deciduous forests are used as breeding and feeding grounds for birds like (Κοινή) Ροδόσπιζα, Σταχτομυγοχάφτης, Μαυρομυγοχάφτης, Νανοδρυοκολάπτης, Σταχτής Δρυοκολάπτης and (Ευρωπαϊκός) Κοκκοθραύστης. On and around the delta large amounts of gulls and terns are often seen. most common are Καστανοκέφαλος Γλάρος, Μελανόγλαρος, Θυελλόγλαρος, and Ποταμογλάρονο. Νανόγλαρος is seen regularly.

Access
Parking can be done on Skeppsholmen (the same island as the airport). On the island you take the exit out of the E4 and drive southwest on the island until you arrive at the parking spot. Press P on the map for directions. There are a few bridges connecting the island together, and a reasonable network of roads which makes the delta relativley easy to traverse.
