Description
Stora Amundön offers varied birding with fine salt marshes, oak groves and shallow bays. In spring and autumn, the salt marshes by the canal between the mainland are worth a visit. Побережник чорногрудий, Коловодник болотяний and Коловодник великий are often seen. Грицик малий, Коловодник чорний, Побережник білохвостий and Побережник малий can be seen with a little luck. Some geese, ducks and seals can also be found on the salt marshes.
If you go further out on the island, it is worth scouting out flocks of ducks in shallow bays around with Гоголь зеленоголовий and Чернь чубата in winter. In summer, nice birdsongs can be heard in the oak groves. Rarities that have been seen in Stora Amundön include Мала біла чапля, Коловодник строкатий, Серпокрилець блідий, Гагара білодзьоба, Гагара полярна and Щеврик азійський.
