Beskrivning

Fanø (Fanoe) is the northernmost of the three inhabited Danish islands in the Wadden Sea. Fanø is a flat island made of sand with dunes and saltmarshes around on the eastern side. The island has a high diversity of nature with many seals, birds and deers. Many different kinds of scenery are represented here: sandy beaches, dunes, coastal meadows, heath and plantations. Around Sønderho on the island’s southernmost point are the three sandflats Keld Sand, Peter Meyers Sand and Langejord, where tens of thousands of waders roost at high tide. The migration is monitored by Fanø Birdstation by migration observations and ringing. Millions of waterbirds are resting, more than 750.000 passerines and raptors are migrating from the south-tip called "Hønen".

Breeding birds include svartbent strandpipare, småtärna, nattskärra and brun kärrhök. For certain migrating species Fanoe is among the best places in northern Europe to watch them. For example forsärla, ringtrast, dvärgsparv, stäpphök and finches.
