Description
The area of the Gann estuary encompasses the shoreline and bay by the mouth of the Gann Pill (small river) and the Pickleridge Pools that lie just behind the sea wall. At the pools you can see birds like Brandönd and Bjarthegri. Also ducks like Hvinönd, Rauðhöfðaönd and Urtönd and sometimes Toppönd, Bláþyrill and Keldusvín. During migration many species of waders can be seen here too when it's high tide. The Gann and bay is the place for flocks of Margæs in winter, as well as small numbers of divers and grebes. Also gulls roost here and terns can be seen on migration.
