Large flocks of resting Fuligule morillon, Canard siffleur and Fuligule milouinan. Other species of waterbird that can be found within the bay are Canard chipeau, Plongeon catmarin, Grèbe esclavon, Phalarope à bec étroit, Canard pilet and Harelde boréale. The area is also a good spot for Macreuse noire. The bay is known for its rare vagrants and species such as Canard d'Amérique, Fuligule milouin and Fuligule à bec cerclé have been seen here.
The bay is also a good spot for observing gulls and skuas, like Goéland marin, Grand Labbe and Labbe parasite.
The best way to observe the bay is from Sigurgeir's Bird Museum, located just east of the bay. It gives the best views over the lake. The museum is surrounded by low vegetated fields and a great place to observe species like Traquet motteux and Pipit farlouse. Also Hibou des marais can be found here and Faucon gerfaut can be seen hunting.
