Description
The area is really good throughout spring particularly when some areas have been flooded during winter. In fact high water conditions combined with the grassy area create a very good stopover site for Taumönd or Grafönd for example. The open water bodies are also good for terns. Moreover in Spring Blábrystingur is easily heard and seen singing in the willows near the reedbed. Depending on the year 2-3 pairs of Tríll breed on the site. The bushes also host Þyrnisvarri and Netlusöngvari as breeders. A colony of Hettumáfur is established on the islet on the easternmost water body and they are sometimes joined by some Lónamáfur.
Of course it can be useful to check the water bodies in winter for ducks but there are often fishermen near the lakes so ducks are rarely as numerous as on other water bodies in the region.
