Description

Brosjön is a wetland area that attracts many bird species in the flooded area in spring. Good place for waterfowl in open water areas. Several different species of birds of prey nest in the immediate vicinity and forage in Brosjön. From some of the bird observation towers it is quite a long distance, so a spotting scope can be useful. Among the birds you can observe are Широконоска, Бекас, Перевозчик, Серый журавль, Орлан-белохвост, Скопа, Болотный лунь, Полевой лунь and Лебедь-кликун.
