Beskrivning
Utlängan is an island in the Karlskrona archipelago. The island is situated the furthest out to sea of any of the archipelago's islands. Utlängan is approximately 3 km long and 1.5 km across. The island covers just over 215 hectares. 329 bird species have been recorded at Utlängan. Along the coastal meadows and seaweed rich bays waders often rest. Most of them are found in early May and from late July-August. The most common species are: rödbena, kärrsnäppa andstörre strandpipare. Many rarer species like smalnäbbad simsnäppa, dvärgbeckasin and myrsnäppa are regularly found.
Utlängen is an excellent observation area for migration. Thousands of migrating vitkindad gås, prutgås, sjöorre, svärta, ejder, fisktärna, Trana, alfågel and storspov can be found. The area is one of the best in Sweden when it comes to migrating waterfowl.
The island is a last stopover in Sweden for many migrating passerine birds during migration season. Large amounts of lövsångare (has been seen in the thousands), grönsiska (Has been seen in the thousands), stare and kungsfågel can often be found. The area is often visited by rare eastern warblers like kungsfågelsångare, tajgasångare and höksångare.
