Beskrivning
In the large open area of the Vehnemoor typical marsh breeders such as ängspiplärka, blåhake, Sävsparv, Trana, enkelbeckasin, storspov, rödbena and mindre strandpipare are common in spring and summer. There is also a small colony of skrattmås and single pairs fiskmås. The forested area in the central part is a breeding place for nattskärra, lövsångare and trädpiplärka.
On spring migration parts that just have been recently renaturalised are also good spots for Waders. Most numerous species are gluttsnäppa, skogssnäppa, grönbena, större strandpipare and mosnäppa. From late April to August (best time is first decade of May) other Wader species such as kärrsnäppa, sandlöpare, roskarl, spovsnäppa and småsnäppa could be watched here.
In winter the area is used as a roosting site for huge numbers of Greater White-Fronted Geese & Bean Geese, Common Cranes and swans.

There are four ways to access the moor (see map). One road through the area could be used by car, others are forbidden to use and blocked with barriers. But those can be explored on foot.
