Description
Örfirisey is a reliable spot to observe the birdlife of the Reykjavík bay. Especially in the colder times of the year. Bringing your telescope, a scan of the bay and horizon might produce birds like ľadovka dĺhochvostá, kormorán chochlatý, sula biela, alkovec drobný, kamenárka strakatá and potápač prostredný. You might also see potáplica malá and potáplica veľká. Örfirsey has also hosted a male turpan nosorohý every winter since 2014, proving it as a reliable spot for this vagrant. Overhead, snehuľka severská might pass, and along the rocks there might be svišťúň zrkadlový.
