Description

In autumn and winter the Olsäng area gives a beautiful walk and a good chance of migrants and wintering birds. If the wind is right ( from the east) migrating birds over the sea come close to shore. The area contains of the sea, shoreline, meadows and some small copses. Olsäng is known for beeing best for birding in the autumn and in the winter but might have potential even in the spring if the wind is right.

Birds that can be seen are Pufla, Telkuyruk, Kadife ördek, Kara ördek, Karagerdanlý dalgýç, Kýzýlgerdanlý dalgýç, Yosun kazi, and other geese. If one is lucky Süslü Pufla, Buz Dalgýcý and sarı gagalı dalgıç. On the meadows and surrounding marshes Su çulluğu, Küçük su çulluğu, Tarlakuşu and Alaca kirazkuşu. The area is also good for watching both harbour seal and grey seal.
