red-listed species observed on Kya, and a total of 80 different bird registrations, there is no doubt that the area is important for bird life in general, and in particular an important nesting site. Black guillemots and cormorants thrive particularly well out here. This is hardly surprising, as the Black guillemot likes areas with large and dense kelp forests, which Kya has. Vassholmen nature reserve has been home to one of the largest cormorant colonies in the county outside Froan. Observations may indicate that this has now been displaced and that the colony has re-established itself on South-Kya. However, the islets around Kya have equally large colonies, they are just not officially documented.     <\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-51846e5 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"51846e5\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-c03761b elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"c03761b\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><em>(Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/snl.no\/teist\">Store norske leksikon<\/a>)<\/em><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-b08b588 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"b08b588\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-2e83087 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"2e83087\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-64824b7 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"64824b7\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-086c9a8 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"086c9a8\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Tare forest<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-7b01762 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"7b01762\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-6e3b163 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"6e3b163\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>The kelp forest is Norway&#8217;s most productive ecosystem, and it&#8217;s not just Black guillemots who appreciate it. The diversity of species in the kelp forest is comparable to that found in rainforests, and its ability to bind greenhouse gases means that it is also considered an important part of the fight to reduce global warming. Kya has a large and rich kelp forest, but it is threatened by, among other things, the red sea urchin. In 2020, it was therefore advised against harvesting kelp in the areas around Kya.    <\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element

It can have a negative impact on human health and means that more and more people are growing up without being able to see most of the stars in the sky. A third of the world&#8217;s population cannot see the Milky Way from where they live, and the loss of a view of the night sky also means a loss of cultural heritage.  <\/p><p>On Kya, the only sources of artificial light are those you create yourself while you&#8217;re there and those necessary for navigation. Thus, it is possible to get it virtually free of light pollution, if you want. This is an experience that is likely to become rarer and rarer and requires special protection.  <\/p><p>The same goes for the unique soundscape that can be experienced on Kya. The tranquillity of the forest has a special place in the hearts of Norwegians, but we dare say the sound of the sea is of equal value.
