Lake Flinka boasts a very rich birdlife. In spring, you can hear the snipe on the lookout for a mate with its "tick-a-tick-a-tick-a." Other birds that can be seen and nest at Lake Flinka include greylag geese, mallards, and teals. The crane, with its piercing cry that sounds like an old-fashioned car horn, can be heard long before you see it.
