Skåne  >  Sweden

An old clay quarry which nowadays is filled with water and reedbeds. The surrounding walls give a very good view over the area.

Description

The area consists of the ponds, reedbeds and surrounding moist meadows. The fact that the area is quite small and is easy to overview gives very good observations of birds.

The ponds themselves aren't very rich in birdlife, but the species that áre present make the area special. Guifette noire can be seen fishing and sometimes even nesting in the ponds. Butor étoilé are breeding in the reedbeds. Other species that can be seen or heard are Râle d'eau and Bruant des roseaux.

In the surrounding area, damp meadows, marshes and open fields with scattered trees and dense shrubberies are located. When walking through the area listen for Rémiz penduline, which in some years is breeding in the area. Other birds of interest can be Sarcelle d'été, Faucon hobereau, Locustelle tachetée, Cigogne blanche, Bécassine des marais, Barge à queue noire, Bécassine des marais and Balbuzard pêcheur.

On the south side of the ponds, a birdingtower is located which gives a slightly (due to vegetation) narrow view of the area. From the tower leads a path south through the meadows and shrubland in which Locustelle tachetée and Rémiz penduline can be heard.
