Descrição

The northern part of the peninsula of Hindsholm consists of small islands, islets and crooked spits. There are a few copses and wet and dry meadows. Fyns Hoved itself has attractive scenery. The coast is stony with steep moraine cliffs, whilst inland the landscape is hilly with small fields divided by rows of stone walls. The long spit called Tornen, which is a bird reserve, curves round the shallow lagoon of Fællesstrand. South of the lagoon is the Jøvet, an outlook point with a view southwards towards Lillestrand with the islands of Mejlø, Bogø and the Langehoved peninsula.

Arau-d'asa-branca nest in the cliffs at Lillestrand 3km to the south and can be seen out at sea off the coast of Fyns Hoved. Breeding birds at the reserves of Tornen and Lillestrand include Pato-branco, Eider-edredão, Ostraceiro and Borrelho-grande-de-coleira. Some years Andorinha-do-mar-anã breeds here.

Early in the morning at the end of April or May the thickets around Fyns Hoved can be swarming with passerines. The best chance of experiencing this is after misty nights with warm winds from the east. The spring migration can best be seen from Horseklint on the eastern side of Fællesstrand or from Baesbanke, which is the highest point on Fyns Hoved itself (25m). Both land and sea migration can be watched from here. Many species of passerine fly past. Early in spring, the first Laverca appear, followed later on by finches, pigeons and crows. Later still, wagtails, pipits, hirundines, starlings and tits can be seen. The greater part of the raptors seen here are Águia-d'asa-redonda, which begin migrating in February together with a few Milhafre-real. In March/April, Tartaranhão-ruivo-dos-pauis, peneireiro-de-dorso-malhado / peneireiro, Gavião da Europa and now and then Águia-pesqueira can be spotted. Over the sea, there are movements of large numbers of divers, cormorants and ducks, especially diving ducks, the commonest species being Eider-edredão, Pato-fusco and Pato-preto. Also Mergulhão-de-pescoço-ruivo and Merganso-de-poupa are often seen.

Fællesstrand is an important staging area for ducks and waders, that forage in the shallow waters. The commonest birds seen here are Pato-branco, Piadeira, Perna-vermelha-comum, Pilrito-comum, Maçarico-real, Maçarico-galego and Corvo-marinho-de-faces-brancas.The area also attracts many gulls, Garajau-comum and Andorinha-do-mar-árctica. In the winter months, many seabirds can be seen on the sea around the peninsula. These include diving ducks, auks, divers and skuas. Escrevedeira-das-neves, Petinha-marítima and Pilrito-escuro can now and then be seen on the coast.
