Wildlife in Khar Us Nuur National Park
Khovd
Khar Us Nuur forms part of the Great Lakes basin, where shallow water, reed beds, islands, desert steppe and nearby mountains sit close together. The wetland is particularly significant for breeding and migrating waterbirds, while surrounding dry country holds a contrasting set of steppe species. Observation conditions vary with water level and wind. A telescope is useful because many birds remain far offshore or within broad reed margins, and spring and autumn bring the greatest movement.
