Description
Eyebrook Reservoir is an important site for wintering wildfowl, such as haapana, tavi, and punasotka. Other habitats are marsh, mudflats, grassland, broad-leaved woodland and plantations. Other birds that can be seen here include isohaarahaukka, nuolihaukka, sääksi (kalasääski), uivelo, suosirri and kapustarinta. In migration periods scarcer species can be attracted to the reservoir's shores and these regularly include kuovisirri, suokukko and mustaviklo. Vagrants which have occurred include seabirds such as myrskykeiju and suula, as well as rääkkähaikara, yöhaikara, aropääskykahlaaja and a variety of other species, mostly associated with wetlands.
