Description
The area around Horn kyrka is a quite good site for geese with hundreds of Oie des moissons, Oie cendrée, and Bernache du Canada found most years. Often with lesser amounts of Oie rieuse, Oie de la toundra, Oie à bec court, and Bernache nonnette interspersed. Bernache cravant has been seen. Most geese are found by Rien (marked with a star on the map) in late Febuary and March.
During the spring Riens water overflow and large amounts of open water form. When this happens large amounts of Canard colvert (at most 200), and Sarcelle d'hiver (at most 150) rest in the area. Among these ducks you can observe smaller amounts of Canard siffleur, Canard chipeau, Canard siffleur, Canard pilet (uncommon), Canard souchet (uncommon), and Sarcelle d'été (rare). Sometimes also some diving ducks. But since water levels vary each spring the amount and variation of ducks at Rien vary accordingly. The wetland at Hornebergs holds permanent water, and usually some dabbling ducks, but not in the same amount. Horn Marsh along with its ponds is also quite good for small amounts of different dabbling ducks.
Diving ducks are most usually found in Åsunden with Harle bièvre, Fuligule morillon, Garrot à oeil d'or being common, while Harle huppé and Harle piette are uncommon. At Trossbonäs rare diving ducks like Macreuse noire, and Macreuse brune can be found with luck in April. Even Eider à duvet and Fuligule milouinan have been seen there.
In spring if Rien has water in late April waders rest there. Chevalier sylvain, Chevalier culblanc (at most 23), Vanneau huppé, and Bécassine des marais (at most 100). On the fields Pluvier doré, at Åsunden Chevalier guignette sing, and in the forests Bécasse des bois can be found. During heavy autumn rain Rien can gain enough water for waders such as Chevalier aboyeur, Combattant varié, Bécasseau variable, Courlis cendré, Grand Gravelot, and Bécasseau cocorli. The fields around Bränna and Västa eneby are pretty good areas for Bécassine sourde in November.
Among predatory birds Faucon crécerelle, Buse variable, Bondrée apivore, Buse pattue, Pygargue à queue blanche, Épervier d'Europe, Autour des palombes, Balbuzard pêcheur, Faucon hobereau and Busard Saint-Martin are all common. Aigle royal, Faucon émerillon, Faucon pèlerin, and Milan noir are all rare but seen some years. The best places for them are Bränna, Rien, and Åshorva.
Large amounts of passerine birds move along the fields around Horn, therefore large amounts of Linotte mélodieuse, Pipit farlouse, Bergeronnette printanière and other common meadows birds are found along with other rare passerine birds like Gorgebleue à miroir, Merle à plastron, Bruant lapon (very rare), Bruant des neiges, and Linotte à bec jaune. The best places for these are Bränna and Rien.
The wetland around Rien and Hornsberg have large amounts of reed and trees which make them excellent places for nightactive birds. All the common bird are found some years with Râle des genêts, Caille des blés, Rousserolle des buissons, Locustelle fluviatile, Marouette ponctuée, and Locustelle tachetée. Even Marouette poussin has been found.

Accès
Horn is located on the southern shores of lake Åsunden. No good parking spots can be found for most of these places but it is often possible to park alongside the road. The area is best explored with bike or car and perhaps not best suited to tourists because there are few facilities for visitors.
