Beschrijving
Kvismare is wetland nature reserve of 732 ha. Each year around 200 different bird species are observed in the area, both during migration and breeding. In the center of the reserve is the hill "Öby kulle" with parking spots, toilets, barbecue places and information signs. Öby kulle is an important hibernation place for water snakes and vipers. When the early spring sun warms the ground hundreds of them can be seen for a few days before they crawl out to the wetlands and agricultural landscape.
West of Öby kulle is Lake "Rysjön", an open lake with areas of common reed surrounded with wetlands. It's a breeding place for species such as Zwarte Stern, Krakeend, Zomertaling, Slobeend, Roodhalsfuut, Kuifduiker, Roerdomp, Baardman, Grote Karekiet and Bruine Kiekendief. During spring and autumn the fields and wetland areas around Lake Rysjön are good places to observe migrating Kraanvogel and geese, especially Taigarietgans. Many of them uses the lake as sleeping place.
East of Öby kulle a path leads to Lake "Fågelsjön" and a larger wetland area called Estern Kvismaren, which can also be accessed by the road that goes south from Öby kulle. This is a good place to see migrating birds, especially in the spring. Taigarietgans is seen in the large numbers, but every year rarer species such as Dwerggans, Kleine Rietgans, Kolgans are observed in lesser number. During winter time Lake Fågelsjön is a good place to see Zeearend and Steenarend.
The south west part of Eastern Kvismaren, Hammarmaden, is the best place in the area to see and listen to Bokje and Poelsnip when they migrate during spring.
