South Flommen

South Flommen is nowadays almost totally overgrown with reeds and rushes. The areas of open water diminish with each year. As a bird area, South Flommen has undergone a major change in just a few decades. Nowadays, it is a habitat for reed birds and among these Bearded Tit is a newcomer, occasionally breeding. Almost every year, the whistle of Spotted Crake can be heard in spring and early summer. On these occasions you may also hear the sound of the rare Green Toad as well as the Natterjack Toad.

During autumn migration, pipits and wagtails rest on the surrounding meadows and species like Tawny Pipit, Red-throated Pipit and (rarely) Citrine Wagtail occasionally show up.

In southerly winds raptor migration is often seen better at South Flommen than at Nabben.

The area incl. golf courses is a part of Flommen's nature reserve and dogs must be kept on a leash 1 March-31 October.
