Beschrijving
Migrating birds (mostly waterfowl) can be found seen from Ekudden. Especially in autumn (September/Oktober). Then Thousands of Brandgans, Rotgans, Smient and Eider have been seen. Hundreds of Wintertaling, Pijlstaart, Zwarte Zee-eend and Grote Zee-eend have been migrating during the right weather.
On the Cobs around Kvädö large colonies of Aalscholver, Noordse Stern, Visdief, Stormmeeuw and Kokmeeuw. There is also one of the few colonies of Reuzenstern in Sweden at Röskären. If the weather is harsh, arctic waders sometimes stop on the cobs. The cobs are also one of the best wintering areas for Paarse Strandloper.
The open sea next to Ekudden is often open and holds large amounts of wintering Grote Zaagbek, IJseend and Brilduiker. Smaller amounts of wintering Zwarte Zee-eend, Middelste Zaagbek, Bergeend and Fuut can be found. During late autumn and winter large amounts (at most 3500) of Brilduiker and Kuifeend winter at Licknewarpsfjärden. Nonnetje, is found up until April but is most common in early December. Smaller amounts of dabbling ducks (Krakeend, Smient and Wintertaling) and Tafeleend also winter in the bays. The large area of forests bring wintering Steenarend, Havik and Sperwer. The fields often hold wintering Buizerd, and cobs Zeearend.
During spring resting loons have been seen. Passerine birds sometimes rest at Ekudden. Rare birds like Blauwborst (northern subsp), Zwarte Roodstaart, and Haakbek have been seen. Grebes have been seen resting during the spring (Roodhalsfuut, Fuut (most common), and Kuifduiker) are often found.
