Over 210 bird species has been observed on the sight, with most recent rarities such as Aigrette garzette, Chevalier bargette, Grèbe à cou noir, Héron garde-boeufs and Mouette mélanocéphale. At Herrebro wetland there is a bird tower with a great view over the area, a bird hide with good opportunities to close contact with wetland birds and footbridges in the marshlands for visitors.

Pic épeichette and Mésange à longue queue nests in the adjacent marshlands. The high amount and variety of bird species also attracts bird of prey such as Pygargue à queue blanche, Busard des roseaux and Faucon hobereau who regularly visits the area.

The old local dump site, Herrebrotippen, is a tip-top bird site for nocturnal songsters such as Râle des genêts, Locustelle tachetée, Rousserolle verderolle och Rossignol progné.
