Description
The Outer Alster ("Alster" is the name of the river, "Außen" means Outer) represents a large water body located on a migratory bird route within a metropole region. Frequent breeding and feeding birds like Stokkand (of course), Toppdykker, Sothøne, Sivhøne, Storskarv or Hettemåke are known from many places. Especially during winter half of the year water birds of all kind can be expected. Several species of ducks (including Svartand, Bergand, Krikkand), divers (Gråstrupedykker, Svarthalsdykker, Horndykker), gulls (all common species) and terns ( Svartterne, Makrellterne) can be observed with a bit of luck and scope. Even Havørn has been seen gliding over. Recorded rarities include Storjo and Hvitvingesvartterne.
