Description
Suomenoja's (or Finno) bird pools were created as a result of human activity in the former Finnoonlahti Bay. The pools provide nesting environment for many bird species – including some rarities within Finland and the EU. The symbol of the area is the Озерная чайка. The area hosts the largest gull community in Southern Finland (estimated at 3,700 pairs) and the second largest in Finland. Other birds you can see here are Красношейная поганка, Обыкновенный соловей, Гоголь, Камышевка-барсучок and Фифи. And many more, see the birslist below.
