Descrição

Kagsmosen is a small protected bog that is squeezed inside by the motorway and buildings. In the 19th century, the swampy and difficult-to-penetrate area was part of the large fortification that encircled Copenhagen with Vestvolden, Utterslev Mose and the defense batteries in the north. Vestvolden lost its significance from 1920 and in 1939 they began to make Kagsmosen more audience-friendly and built paths. The area is now laid out as a park but has retained its character of bog with several peat digging lakes and canals. In certain areas, nature care is carried out for the benefit of animals and plants. Breeding waterfowl include Mergulhão-pequeno, Mergulhão-de-pescoço-ruivo, Cisne-vulgar, Ganso-comum, Galinha-d'água and Galeirão-comum. The area also houses breeding Pica-pau-malhado-grande, Chapim-rabilongo, Tordo-zornal and Rouxinol-russo as well as many songbirds, including rouxinol-dos-caniços and Felosa-palustre. In previous years, the relatively rare Chapim-de-faces-pretas has bred in the bog. Trepadeira-comum has been found breeding since 2012. Águia-d'asa-redonda and Tartaranhão-ruivo-dos-pauis breed in certain years. On Vestvolden up to the bog or in the bog itself, Gavião da Europa often breed.

Kagsmosen is also an excellent bird area for resting and migrating birds. Many ducks, geese and Marrequinha-comum, Pato-trombeteiro, Zarro-negrinha and Zarro-comum can be seen and many of birds of prey. Especially Águia-d'asa-redonda and also Bútio-vespeiro, and occasionally Milhafre-real, Açor, Búteo-calçado, Águia-rabalva, Águia-pesqueira and Tartaranhão-azulado. Grou-comum annually pass the bog. In addition, many species of waders, larks, swallows, pipers, thrushes, songbirds and finches migrate through the area. The winter season often offers a lot of ducks and Cisne-bravo, as well as occasionally Merganso-grande, herons, raptors and waterfowl. Apart from many different passerines, it is sometimes possible to see Melro-d'água and in certain years flocks of invading Tagarela-europeu. A few years ago Trepadeira-comum started to overwinter here. Guarda-rios-comum is a seldom but regular guest in the area.

In winter, you can visit the nearby locality Harrestrup Å, Islev (Marked with a star on the map), where especially the stretch between Brunevang and the motorway can show both Guarda-rios-comum, Melro-d'água and Alvéola-cinzenta.
