Klagshamn is my favorite place in Malmö. It is a peninsula that contains several different types of habitats such as woodland, scrub and thickets, mudflats, marshland, open fields, and flowery meadows. It is this diversity of habitat that makes Klagshamn so attractive for birds - nearly 200 different species have been recorded here. Other urban wildlife can also be spotted here like the Red Fox / Rödräv , Roe Deer / Rådjur and Wild Boar / Vildsvin, as well as a wide diversity of insects including the rare Lesser Emperor Dragonfly / Mindre Kejsartrollslända. It is also home to Sweden’s acutely endangered Green Toad / Grönfläckig padda that’s on the national red list. Klagshamn was designated a nature reserve in 2019.
