It was on an approximately five hectare island in the Skirsjöskogen nature reserve that the nature conservation burning took place.

- It was a very good burn with good fire behavior.

The ignition plan held all the way and we are convinced that we will achieve the results.

In addition, the temperature was comfortable and the burning went relatively quickly, says Magnus Melander, biologist at the County Administrative Board of Östergötland in a press release.

The purpose of nature conservation burning is to preserve habitats and to benefit biodiversity.
