Description
Lunds Reningsverksdammar are a series of sewege ponds. A walk around the dams offers a good view of the ducks and other water birds there like chochlačka morská, chochlačka vrkočatá, potápač malý, kačica chrapka, kačica lyžičiarka, potápač veľký and potápka malá. Along the sides of the dams trasochvost horský, sliepočka vodná and rybárik riečny sometimes can be seen. Some years chochlačka bielooká has been seen but also hybrids between chochlačka bielooká and chochlačka vrkočatá. South of the ponds is the stream Höje å running, which is worth a closer inspection especially in migration times when passerines rest there.
