Descrição

Getterön offers excellent opportunities for bird watching during all months of the year. About 170 species regularly breed or rest during migration. In addition to these, a large number of temporary guests visit. Not less than 334 species have been recorded at Getterön. During spring and autumn large numbers of geese, ducks and wading birds roost here. Thanks to the mild climate and the proximity to the sea, many birds are also wintering. Heated water from Varberg’s sewage plant flows through the channel and out into the lagoon, and contributes to keeping the ice away even during severe winters. Just outside the Visitor centre (Naturum) it is therefore possible to see Mergulhão-pequeno , Merganso-pequeno, Guarda-rios-comum and many of the other exciting winter guests, and all from a comfortable cafeteria. Flocks of Cisne-bravo and diving ducks are also to be seen on the water. Wintering Chapim-de-bigode gather in the reeds along with Frango-d'água and Abetouro-comum. The falcão-peregrino is found in the reserve all year round. During the winter it may be accompanied by Águia-rabalva and Falcão-gerifalte.
