Description

Presterødkilen nature reserve is a shallow, nutrient-rich wetland, in the transition between brackish water and salt water. It is located to the east of Tønsberg town. Presterødkilen has large areas of exposed mud at low tide and is lined by dense reed beds, but the surroundings beyond that are urban-industrial and not very bird friendly. Presterødkilen is a very good area to see shorebirds. More than 40 species of waders have been recorded here. Also reed birds and birds of prey can be seen and Panure à moustaches sometimes in winter. With some luck you can see Balbuzard pêcheur hunting. Among the birds you can observe in the area are Bruant des roseaux, Bruant jaune, Bernache nonnette, Tadorne de Belon, Sarcelle d'hiver, Eider à duvet, Garrot à oeil d'or, Harle huppé, Huîtrier pie, Courlis cendré, Combattant varié, Bécasseau variable, Râle d'eau, Chevalier aboyeur and Chevalier gambette.
