Description
During winter most of the Norrbysjön lake is covered in ice, but where Motala ström meets Norrbysjön the water is ususally open year round. During this period large flocks of црна лиска, голем северен нуркач, Дива патка, цуцулест кожувар, црвеноклун лебед, Canada Goose, Сребренест галеб and четириока патка can be found. Often numbering in the hundreds. Within these flocks rarer wintering birds like цуцулест нуркач, калуѓерка, жолтоклун лебед, dabbling ducks, мал нуркач , белочелна гуска, обичен сколовранец, црвеноглав кожувар, and голем корморан can be spotted. The large amounts of wintering birds attract birds of prey like белоопашест орел, глувчар, and Полска еја.
When the ice melts large amounts of pipits, larks, geese, жолтоклун лебед, and sometimes мал лебед, use the fields around the lake as feeding grounds. The lake is usually filled with many dabbling ducks, gulls and terns. Husbyängarna are often flodded, and usually hold wading birds like мала бекасина, црвенонога тринга, среден пескар, калуѓерка, and зеленонога тринга. The reedbeds around the lake are now filled with birds. Some rare birds who are sometimes found around the lakes are голем воден бик, штурче трскарче, мустаклеста сипка and обичен трскар. Some rare terns and gulls like мал галеб and црна рибарка pass the lake during the spring migration.
Some rarer breeding birds at the lake are обичен трскар, голем воден бик, полска еребица, мал клукајдрвец, крекс and рибарче. Norrbysjön is and excellent area for night active birds. Around the lake крекс, потполошка, полски трскар, Северен славеј, Речен цвркотник, блатен трскар can often be heard at the lake.
During autumn large amounts of geese start to visit the lake again. Many more passerine birds can be found on the fields. Among these Snow Bunting, Lapland Bunting and црвеногушеста трепетилка are often found. Hundreds of златно блатарче can often be found on the fields. Sometimes marine ducks like Common Scoter and белокрила црнка stay at the lake.
