Rate birdingplace Frognerparken
Description
In summer, Frognerparken is a good spot for the resident, urban species, like Bela pliska , Zeba , Češljugar and Obični kos. In addition, the ponds will hold various ducks and maybe also Barska kokica, Polojka and Potočna pliska. Labud grbac breeds here.
In winter, the ponds usually have open water, which is good for wintering ducks. Gluvara are of course abundant, while Patka dupljašica and Ćubasta patka are usual guests. Krdža and Zviždara also regularly winter here. Always check for rarer species, especially in late fall and early spring. Siva čaplja is also a common sight. Gulls also frequent the park during the winter months, due to people feeding the ducks. Wintering Obični galeb and Sivi galeb can be found, as well as rarer species. Both Severni galeb and Islandski galeb have been reported from the park, and one Delaverski galeb was found here in the spring of 2001.
Follow Frognerelva south west to Skøyen and look for Vodenkos during winter.
