Beskrivning
Saltern Wetlands gets many more birds than it did before high tide bank was breached. You can observe flocks of tofsvipa, storspov, Kricka, bläsand, rödbena, rödspov and skärfläcka. Winter guests include svartsnäppa. Other birds that can be seen are gravand, Skedand, större strandpipare and strandskata. Pilgrimsfalk, brun kärrhök and ormvråk hunt over the area at times. Two small freshwater ponds were created at the same time, between the railway line and the inland end of the tidal area, and have had svarthalsad dopping and mindre strandpipare on them.
