Area of bog, islands and islets and a rich birdlife in the middle of the suburbs of Copenhagen.
Sømosen is situated west of the suburb of Herlev, next to Lautrupparken. The green area, of which one third is a park with grass and scattered bushes, is neighbour to many large institutions and popular for a short walk in the open air. The bog itself was formed in a hollow after the last Ice Age. It is drained by the stream of Sømose Å. The bog was previously very overgrown, but during the 1980’s the municipality of Ballerup carried out an extensive re-establishment project, opening up large stretches of water and recreating islands and islets where birds can breed without being disturbed. Sømosen has developed into a little oasis with a rich birdlife. In addition to the large colony of Gaviota Reidora, three species of grebe breed here ( Zampullín Común, Somormujo Lavanco and Somormujo Cuellirrojo), together with many waterfowl. Waders include Avefría Europea and Chorlitejo Chico. Charrán Común breed here and can be seen foraging throughout the summer. Passerines include Cuco Común, Ruiseñor Ruso and many warblers. The biggest attraction for birdwatchers is probably breeding Pájaro-moscón Europeo. However, the tits have unfortunately not nested here the last few years, although they can sometimes be spotted in the area in spring.
Sømosen is also an excellent locality for migrating and staging birds both spring and autumn. Geese, ducks ( Cerceta Carretona , Cerceta Común , Ánade rabudo norteño , Silbón Europeo , Ánade friso and Cuchara Común ) can be observed. Raptors include a fair number of Busardo ratonero and smaller numbers of Abejero Europeo, together with infrequent visitors such as Milano Real, Busardo Calzado, Pigargo Europeo, Aguilucho pálido, Aguilucho Lagunero Occidental, Águila Pescadora (often seen foraging) – and with some luck Esmerejón and Halcón Peregrino. Avetoro Común has been observed on a few occasions. If there are easterly winds flocks of Grulla Común may appear. Many waders ( Ostrero Euroasiático , Avefría Europea , Chorlitejo Chico , Archibebe Claro , Andarríos Grande , Andarríos Bastardo , Andarríos Chico, Agachadiza común og af og til Chocha Perdiz ).
In addition, Gaviota sombría and Gavión Atlántico and even Pagaza Piquirroja are occasionally seen. Also sparrows, a lot of larks, pipers, wagtails, swallows, thrushes and finches rest and pull in and over the bog. Bigotudo is seen occasionally. Colirrojo Real , Tarabilla Norteña, Collalba Gris, Papamoscas Gris, Papamoscas Cerrojillo, Alcaudón Dorsirrojo and Pardillo Norteño and Pardillo Alpino are seen regularly. Carricero Tordal has visited the bog for a single year.
In the winter months many wildfowl can be seen and visitors from northern Scandinavia may turn up: Cisne Cantor, Ánsar Campestre and Barnacla canadiense grande. In periods of frost, one may be lucky enough to see Rascón Europeo foraging at close range in Sømose Å or even a Agachadiza Chica. In some years there can be invasions of Zorzal Real, Zorzal Alirrojo or Ampelis Europeo, and many colourful finches.
If using public transport, Sømosen is most easily reached from Copenhagen by taking bus 350S and getting off at Københavns Teknikum (the Copenhagen University College of Engineering) in Ballerup. One can also take the local 167/168 bus from Herlev Station (get off at Herlev Stadium and walk down Rørløkken to Sømosen). If coming by car, it is possible to park on Vingekrogen. There is a bird observation tower in the south-east corner of the bog, and in the north-east corner is a jetty which is very useful as a look-out post.
