The Norsholm area is quite vast and contains many minor sites shortly described here. The areas mentioned are marked with a star on the map. Press on a star and you can see the name of the area.
Grensholmsbron: Winter site with open waters even during harsh winters. Thousands of vigg (at most 2000), hundreds of salskrake (only numerous during november and december), knipa (at most 700), gräsand (at most 600), and storskrake (at most 600). Among more rarer wintering birds it is most known for wintering kungsörn, and kungsfiskare. Other not yearly winter visitors are bändelkorsnäbb, tallbit during invasions, and Smådopping, snatterand, vinterhämpling, stjärtand, småskrake, and snösiska during birdrich winters.
Norsholms coastal meadows: Reed free coastal meadows which are rich in waders during late spring and autumn. Although only if the water level is right (only during high water). Few arctic waders are found but skogssnäppa, mindre strandpipare, svartsnäppa, brushane, rödbena, enkelbeckasin, morkulla, grönbena and gluttsnäppa. rödbena, tofsvipa, and enkelbeckasin breed. ägretthäger, kungsfiskare, and småskrake are common.
Åby strandängar: Reed coated coastal meadows which are flooded during spring floods. They are then usually filled with early waders and ducks. rördrom can be heard singing. All common dabbling ducks are usually found except årta. bläsand, gräsand, and snatterand. On these coastal meadows ägretthäger is often found.
Braskens grav: is an oxbow lake of the river Motala ström which often floods making it perfect for waders and ducks. Kricka is numerous, svartsnäppa, and other common tringa-waders are often found along with dvärgbeckasin. ägretthäger is often found here. rörhöna, and sothöna breed.
Åby gård: complex of 3 ponds, the large, the small and fiskaretorpet. It is these ponds and the field around them which Norsholm is most known for. It has a bird observation tower. During spring it holds large amounts of ducks and swans with knölsvan, sångsvan, gräsand, bläsand, snatterand, Kricka, Skedand, vigg, salskrake, and storskrake being common and årta and stjärtand, being rarer. Other common wetland birds are sothöna, Trana, gråhäger. Storskarv often roost here. Rarer birds roosting are Smådopping, rörhöna, rördrom (nearby reed areas), and ägretthäger. There are small islands in the pond which hold a small tern and gull colony. Theese islands also hold small amounts of waders often; storspov, rödbena, tofsvipa, brushane and grönbena. During early spring the area is great for roosting geese and swans with hundreds of bläsgås, grågås, tajgasädgås, kanadagås, and vitkindad gås during good years. often along with smaller amounts of mindre sångsvan (rare), tundrasädgås, spetsbergsgås, and prutgås (rare).
Around these ponds hornuggla, Smådopping, rörhöna, sångsvan, skäggdopping, kanadagås, grågås, Kricka, Trana, tofsvipa, enkelbeckasin, sothöna, skrattmås, havstrut, knölsvan, fisktärna, Fasan, vigg, gräsand, knipa, and southern gulärla breed along with more common birds.
During autumn large amounts of ducks can rest (but less than during spring). The small islands grow during dry summers and can some years hold arctic waders like kärrsnäppa, spovsnäppa, and mosnäppa. blåhake, and lappsparv can sometimes be found on the surrounding fields.
