Frognerparken is perhaps best known for all the statues by Gustav Vigeland, but it's worth bringing your binoculars as well when you visit.
In summer, Frognerparken is a good spot for the resident, urban species, like бела тресиопашка , обична ѕвингалка , билбилче and ќос. In addition, the ponds will hold various ducks and maybe also зеленонога блатна кокошка, речна тринга and планинска тресиопашка. црвеноклун лебед breeds here.
In winter, the ponds usually have open water, which is good for wintering ducks. Дива патка are of course abundant, while четириока патка and цуцулест кожувар are usual guests. патка берија and патка свиркач also regularly winter here. Always check for rarer species, especially in late fall and early spring. сива чапја is also a common sight. Gulls also frequent the park during the winter months, due to people feeding the ducks. Wintering езерски галеб and обичен галеб can be found, as well as rarer species. Both Glaucous Gull and Iceland Gull have been reported from the park, and one Ring-billed Gull was found here in the spring of 2001.
