Beskrivning

The lake of Boren hosts a large variety of waterfowl. Dabbling ducks are often plentyful in the lake (sometimes numbering in the hundreds) during spring and some of whom stay to breed. During autumn and winter the lake is often dominated by geese (most common are grågås, kanadagås, and tajgasädgås. But often also: tundrasädgås, spetsbergsgås and bläsgås), and mergansers (mainly salskrake and storskrake). Among them it is not uncommon to find a few marine ducks (mainly alfågel, bergand and sjöorre). In the lake snatterand, skäggdopping, Storskarv, vigg, knölsvan and many more often nest.

The reedbeds in the southern part of the lake are often used by trastsångare, rördrom, sävsångare, and brun kärrhök. In the north nattskärra and morkulla can often be heard during the night. There are large amounts of deciduous forest around Sjöboknäppan which attract nötkråka, mindre flugsnappare, rosenfink and gransångare and many more.

A migration route passes through the lake during the spring migration in May with migrating tern, waders, and gulls sometimes seen in larger numbers. Among these dvärgmås and svarttärna are sometimes found. The lake holds often sothöna, vattenrall, salskrake, Smådopping and sångsvan during the winter. If the lake is ice-free during this period large amounts of ducks, and geese also winter on the lake. In and around the lake 204 bird species have been recorded.
