Beschrijving
Särkkäniemi Nature Reserve is a great spot for seeing waterfowl all around the year. Knobbelzwaan family can be seen around the area on a daily basis and Grote Zaagbek and Wilde Eend are common sightings as well. Brilduiker , Middelste Zaagbek , Kuifeend , Fuut , Brandgans , Wilde Zwaan , Slobeend and Eider are common birds especially during the warmer months. Blauwe Reiger likes to stop by the rocky points of the shore and Aalscholver often dries its wings by the point too.
During shorebird migration season it's possible to see birds like Bonte Strandloper forage for food in small groups by the rocky shores. The calls of Bosruiter , Scholekster and Oeverloper are familiar sounds in the area during summer too. The lagoon bays provide shelter to shore birds and ducklings and are also great places to spot frogs in spring time. Fitis , Goudhaan , Tjiftjaf , Vink , Groenling , Fluiter , Roodborst and sometimes Kleine Vliegenvanger can be heard singing in the coastal meadow areas. During autumn migration some birders have heard the sounds of Baardman among the reeds too. The views to the sea open the possibility to see even wider variety of birds flying by from the more common Visdief , Noordse Stern , Stormmeeuw and Kokmeeuw to Reuzenstern and Zeearend. It's also possible to come across roe deer, grass snakes and lizards in the area.

NeeExtra info
Rain and the raising of the water level can sometimes make parts of the paths muddy and slippery. The area's duckboards can also float if the water level is high so it's good to pay attention to one's feet when visiting and wear shoes suitable for muddy areas if it has been raining recently.
