Beskrivning
There are two lakes in the area, separated by a strip of land. The banks of the northern pond consist of gravel and sand, whilst the southern pond is surrounded by trees and has only very narrow or no large banks; however, there are a few areas of reeds. To the west of the ponds, renaturation work is still actively underway. In addition to the ponds, the area also features meadows, hedgerows, fields and a small wooded area.
Whilst around the southern pond one can mainly hear and see songbirds such as the gransångare, blåmes, talgoxe, trastsångare, kärrsångare, svarthätta, ärtsångare, törnsångare and järnsparv, the pond itself is often home to Smådopping, skäggdopping, gräsand and grågås. At the northern pond, you can mainly spot vigg, sothöna, mandarinand and knölsvan. On the patch of meadow between the ponds, you will frequently find svarthakad buskskvätta, Sävsparv and gräshoppsångare. In the hedge by the road to the east of the ponds, you can find törnskata, gulsparv and större hackspett.
