Description

Getnäset is an island in the big lake of Storsjön. The best time is when the ice melts and the lake bottom is exposed, usually in early May. Then a large number of ducks, waders and Turna gather here to forage before moving on. Among the birds you can see are Döşüşkenkuş, Kara kızılbacak, Deniz düdükçünü, Kilkuyruk, Kara ördek and Kadife ördek.
