Beschrijving
The lake of Boren hosts a large variety of waterfowl. Dabbling ducks are often plentyful in the lake (sometimes numbering in the hundreds) during spring and some of whom stay to breed. During autumn and winter the lake is often dominated by geese (most common are Grauwe Gans, Grote Canadese Gans, and Taigarietgans. But often also: Toendrarietgans, Kleine Rietgans and Kolgans), and mergansers (mainly Nonnetje and Grote Zaagbek). Among them it is not uncommon to find a few marine ducks (mainly IJseend, Topper and Zwarte Zee-eend). In the lake Krakeend, Fuut, Aalscholver, Kuifeend, Knobbelzwaan and many more often nest.
The reedbeds in the southern part of the lake are often used by Grote Karekiet, Roerdomp, Rietzanger, and Bruine Kiekendief. In the north Nachtzwaluw and Houtsnip can often be heard during the night. There are large amounts of deciduous forest around Sjöboknäppan which attract Notenkraker, Kleine Vliegenvanger, Roodmus and Tjiftjaf and many more.
A migration route passes through the lake during the spring migration in May with migrating tern, waders, and gulls sometimes seen in larger numbers. Among these Dwergmeeuw and Zwarte Stern are sometimes found. The lake holds often Meerkoet, Waterral, Nonnetje, Dodaars and Wilde Zwaan during the winter. If the lake is ice-free during this period large amounts of ducks, and geese also winter on the lake. In and around the lake 204 bird species have been recorded.
