Beschrijving

Waterfowl use Mingen as feeding grounds during the spring migration. Most common among these are Nonnetje, Smient, Wintertaling, Meerkoet and Wilde Zwaan. Some of whom stay during the summer. The large amounts of reeds serve as breeding grounds for birds like Bruine Kiekendief, Rietzanger, Roerdomp, Waterral and sometimes Porseleinhoen. Many of whom have their northermost outpost in the lake (in Sweden). The deciduous forests around the lake attract Staartmees, Putter, Spotvogel, Kleine Bonte Specht and many more. The lake is attractive to many birds of prey, mainly Buizerd, Torenvalk, Sperwer and Blauwe Kiekendief. 190 birds have been recorded in and around the lake.

Toegang

Parking is done on the road between Skatan and Njurunda, which later connects to E4. You can walk to the birdwatching tower from the parking place. At the parking spot there is a board that informs you about the birds in the lake. The lake can be approached from the north, and watching can be done by in the north part of the lake by "uddarna" although it is harder to find a good view of the lake and it is harder to find parking.
