Opis
During late April and early May hundreds of ges zbozowa and gęś tundrowa are staging at lake Ostträsket. Most other species of geese also occurr in smaller numbers, as well as łabędź krzykliwy and żuraw. Until a few decades gęś mała was regular here but it is nowadays very rare. Dabbling ducks may stay in good numbers, especially cyraneczka and krzyżówka. cietrzew are lekking on the fields around Tällåsen.
There are plenty of żuraw also in August and September (up till several thousands). gęgawa is the most numerous goose species during the autumn. Raptors like bielik, błotniak zbożowy, drzemlik or sokół wędrowny are regular. błotniak stepowy is more or less annual. Often interesting passerines feed on the fields, as poświerka or śnieguła.
Though a visit may prove nice at any time of year, the summer months yield less birds. The amount of breeding birds in the lake is low, but it is used by feeding mewa mała, and kobuz and rybołów are not uncommon.

The geese and żuraw usually spend the night on the lake's ice or in the flooded meadows, and fly to the fields when sun rises. They tend to feed in a large area around the villages of Drängsmark and Kåge, but often near the lake at Tällåsen which is also the best spot to see them flying to and from the night quarters. The best time to visit is about April 20th until May 5th, or in autumn around September 1st-20th.
