Easily accessible birding area with salt marshes, oak forest and shallow bays. Worth a visit all year round even though spring and autumn are best.
Stora Amundön offers varied birding with fine salt marshes, oak groves and shallow bays. In spring and autumn, the salt marshes by the canal between the mainland are worth a visit. обичен свиркач, шумска тринга and зеленонога тринга are often seen. Bar-tailed Godwit, црна тринга, белоопашест свиркач and мал свиркач can be seen with a little luck. Some geese, ducks and seals can also be found on the salt marshes.
If you go further out on the island, it is worth scouting out flocks of ducks in shallow bays around with четириока патка and цуцулест кожувар in winter. In summer, nice birdsongs can be heard in the oak groves. Rarities that have been seen in Stora Amundön include мала бела чапја, Greater Yellowlegs, сива пиштарка, White-billed Diver, голем морски нуркач and Richard's Pipit.
At Stora Amundön there is a large car park at the end of Brottkärrsvägen in Brottkär (just southwest of Gothenburg). Click on the P in the map to get directions. Or you can take bus 82/258 to stop Lillövägen. The circular walking route on the map is about 3 km long.
