Beskrivning
The lakes at Whisby Nature Park are surrounded by grassland, marsh, scrub and willow carr. Elements of the original quarry landscape remain, with fragments of heathland, old hedgerows and a small oak woodland. In spring and summer, flocks of tits and finches are joined by warblers. The lakes attract feeding backsvala and ladusvala, and fisktärna nest on the islands. gransångare along with sävsångare and rörsångare can be heard. Whisby Nature Park has also become synonymous with sydnäktergal. Another special bird is the rördrom. Autumn brings the first sight of winter birds such as kungsfågel, Gråsiska and forsärla. In winter, the water levels are at their highest and wildfowl are numerous. The cold weather also brings with it huge murmurations of stare in their thousands, swarming and twisting across the misty lakes.
