Description
Just like its twin lake to the south, Norra (northern) Bergundasjön Lake is rich in birds and fish. At the end of April and beginning of May, flocks consisting of hundreds of common terms stop here on their migration. Such large flocks are unique in Sweden. Several silver terns and black terns stop at this lake, as well, as do large groups of swallows and common swifts. The great crested grebe, the greylag goose and the mute swan are non-migratory birds. The great cormorant, goosander, osprey and white-tailed eagle are drawn to the sea with its abundant supply of fish. The point southwest of Sundet is a good place from which to watch, as is the shore just beyond the working dog club at Bäckaslöv. In the same area, there are a good many species of bats.

Facts
New dietary recommendation due to PFAS in fish:
Analysis results show increased concentration of PFOS in fish from lake Trummen, Växjösjön and Södra and Norra Bergundasjön and the levels exceed the EU's health-based guideline limits. This means that those who eat a lot of fish from the lakes risk consuming too much of this and similar substances, the so-called PFAS, in the long run. Ingesting a lot of PFAS for a long time can be harmful to your health. According to Växjö municipality's dietary recommendation, one should therefore not eat fish from these lakes more than one (1) to three (3) times per year. The advice applies to everyone, both children and adults, including pregnant and breastfeeding women. This applies until further notice.
