The park is a national nature reserve and a Site of Special Scientific Interest. halsbandsparakit have rapidly increased in recent years and their raucous cries are now one of the most commonly heard sounds of the park. Several ground nesting species that breed in the acid grassland of the park have suffered a serious national decline including sånglärka, Sävsparv, svarthakad buskskvätta and ängspiplärka. The rapphöna is another threatened grassland bird that was once common in the park, however the last known breeding was in 1997. The common waterfowl found in the park consist of: knölsvan, kanadagås, grågås, gräsand, mandarinand, vigg, brunand, rödhuvad dykand and Skedand.
