Beschrijving
From Stora Rör Hamn you have a perfect view of the strait between Öland and the mainland. The strait is a natural migration route for south- and north-bound seabirds. In both autumn and spring, tens of thousands of Eider pass through, often at close range and in large flocks. Other common migratory birds are Grote Zee-eend, Zwarte Zee-eend, Middelste Zaagbek, Roodkeelduiker and Parelduiker. From August to October, some Kleinste Jager, Middelste Jager, and Kleine Jager also pass south. The best migration is in spring with southwesterly winds, and in autumn with northerly winds.
