Descrição

Vejlen was previously a fjord connected to the sea, but in 1765 a dyke and sluice were built, cutting off the fjord. Vejlen was drained to create pastureland. In 1905, the sea broke through the dyke. Even though the dyke was reconstructed, Vejlen never became completely drained again. A very shallow lake was formed, that is now brackish and very rich in nutrients, due to pollution from the surrounding farmland. Different waterbirds breed in Vejlen, including Mergulhão-pequeno, Mergulhão-de-pescoço-ruivo, Alfaiate and Perna-vermelha-comum. Tartaranhão-ruivo-dos-pauis breed here just about every year. Chapim-de-bigode nest here, and Guarda-rios-comum can be seen throughout the year. In summer rouxinol-dos-caniços, Felosa-icterina, Papa-amoras-comum and Escrevedeira-dos-caniços can be heard singing in the scrub. During migration the lake and the shallow waters off the coast hold many species of wader. Tarambola-dourada can be seen both spring and autumn in flocks of up to several thousand birds standing on the fields in the vicinity. Other waders include Abibe-comum and Maçarico-real in quite large numbers, and smaller numbers of Ostraceiro, Pilrito-comum, Combatente, Narceja-comum, Perna-vermelha-escuro and Perna-verde-comum. In winter several hundred Cisne-bravo and a few Cisne-pequeno turn up.
