Area of bog, islands and islets and a rich birdlife in the middle of the suburbs of Copenhagen.
Sømosen is situated west of the suburb of Herlev, next to Lautrupparken. The green area, of which one third is a park with grass and scattered bushes, is neighbour to many large institutions and popular for a short walk in the open air. The bog itself was formed in a hollow after the last Ice Age. It is drained by the stream of Sømose Å. The bog was previously very overgrown, but during the 1980’s the municipality of Ballerup carried out an extensive re-establishment project, opening up large stretches of water and recreating islands and islets where birds can breed without being disturbed. Sømosen has developed into a little oasis with a rich birdlife. In addition to the large colony of Guincho-comum, three species of grebe breed here ( Mergulhão-pequeno, Mergulhão-de-crista and Mergulhão-de-pescoço-ruivo), together with many waterfowl. Waders include Abibe-comum and Borrelho-pequeno-de-coleira. Andorinha-do-mar-comum breed here and can be seen foraging throughout the summer. Passerines include Cuco-canoro, Rouxinol-russo and many warblers. The biggest attraction for birdwatchers is probably breeding Chapim-de-faces-pretas. However, the tits have unfortunately not nested here the last few years, although they can sometimes be spotted in the area in spring.
Sømosen is also an excellent locality for migrating and staging birds both spring and autumn. Geese, ducks ( Marreco , Marrequinha-comum , Arrabio , Piadeira , Frisada and Pato-trombeteiro ) can be observed. Raptors include a fair number of Águia-d'asa-redonda and smaller numbers of Bútio-vespeiro, together with infrequent visitors such as Milhafre-real, Búteo-calçado, Águia-rabalva, Tartaranhão-azulado, Tartaranhão-ruivo-dos-pauis, Águia-pesqueira (often seen foraging) – and with some luck Esmerilhão and falcão-peregrino. Abetouro-comum has been observed on a few occasions. If there are easterly winds flocks of Grou-comum may appear. Many waders ( Ostraceiro , Abibe-comum , Borrelho-pequeno-de-coleira , Perna-verde-comum , Pássaro-bique-bique , Maçarico-bastardo , Maçarico-das-rochas, Narceja-comum og af og til Galinhola ).
In addition, gaivota-da-asa-escura and Alcatraz-comum and even Gaivina-de-bico-vermelho are occasionally seen. Also sparrows, a lot of larks, pipers, wagtails, swallows, thrushes and finches rest and pull in and over the bog. Chapim-de-bigode is seen occasionally. Rabirruivo-de-testa-branca , Cartaxo-nortenho, Chasco-cinzento, Papa-moscas-cinzento, Papa-moscas-preto, Picanço-de-dorso-ruivo and Pintarroxo-de-queixo-preto and pintarroxo-pequeno are seen regularly. Rouxinol-grande-dos-caniços has visited the bog for a single year.
In the winter months many wildfowl can be seen and visitors from northern Scandinavia may turn up: Cisne-bravo, Ganso-campestre and Ganso do Canadá. In periods of frost, one may be lucky enough to see Frango-d'água foraging at close range in Sømose Å or even a Narceja-galega. In some years there can be invasions of Tordo-zornal, Tordo-ruivo-comum or Tagarela-europeu, and many colourful finches.
If using public transport, Sømosen is most easily reached from Copenhagen by taking bus 350S and getting off at Københavns Teknikum (the Copenhagen University College of Engineering) in Ballerup. One can also take the local 167/168 bus from Herlev Station (get off at Herlev Stadium and walk down Rørløkken to Sømosen). If coming by car, it is possible to park on Vingekrogen. There is a bird observation tower in the south-east corner of the bog, and in the north-east corner is a jetty which is very useful as a look-out post.
