The birdlife at the sugar factory
Experience the rich birdlife at the former Stege Sugar Factory's soil pools. The old soil pools are today a valuable nature area and we will walk between the many pools, looking at the birds that are present - especially the different waterbirds that either rest or breed in the area. We will also take a look for birds in Stege Bay just outside the pools. This tour is suitable for beginners, as we will experience many of the birds from a short distance. The sooil pools are worth a visit all year round. In the winter, we will experience the many thousands of Tufted Duck's that are resting in the pools. Among the Tufted Ducks's we look for Pochards, Greater Scaups, mergansers and Coots and what other birds may be present at the time. In the summer we will experience the breeding birds, e.g. three species of grebes, different dabbling ducks. In the reeds and brink vegetation we will hear singing Reed Warblers and Reed Buntings.
Binoculars, if you have. Optionally you can borrow binoculars from us. On this tour your birdtour guide brings a spotting scope and a bird fieldguide. On the two-hour tour there will be time to enjoy coffee/tea. Therefore, please bring drinks (coffee/tea/water...) and maybe a small snack.
Allways small groups with max. 4 people on tours. The perfect choice for you who like to go on tours alone, with friends or family. *Are you a family of more than 4 people, then contact us to hear about the options.
Can you imagine a world without birds? I can't! I have been an avid and passionate birdwatcher from an early age, and therefore have many years of experience in birdwatching. I have extensive local knowledge of the birdlife of Møn and Nyord and all the sites where we arrange birdwatching tours. In addition to being a birdtour guide, I also participate in monitoring and ringing of birds. Furthermore, I am a blogger writing about birds and travels. Uffe Damm Andersen
