Beskrivning
600 Hectares of nature reserve in a 1000 Hectares nature complex. The area is easily accesible and has a wide variation of natural habitats.
The larger fens attract migrating waders and waterfowl, rödbena, gluttsnäppa and kärrsnäppa to name a few. Several pairs of nattskärra breed on the moors, göktyta and stenskvätta pass by on their migration. In the forest areas spillkråka and mellanspett can be seen together with the more common woodpeckers. A few pairs of svartvit flugsnappare still breed here. Birds of prey such as Pilgrimsfalk, lärkfalk, duvhök and Bivråk breed in or around the area. Recently a pair of korp was added to the list of birds breeding in the area.
During the autumn migration the migration counting station is manned almost daily throughout September and October and vistors are always welcome to admire the spectacle of thousands of finches, pipits, trushes and, on good days, tens to sometimes a few hundred ormvråk passing on their way south. Even rarities such as havsörn and större skrikörn have passed over the counting station in recent years.
During autumn and winter bergfink and Mindre korsnäbb are quite common guests. Varfågel passes by but is not a regular guest.
