I managed to hurt myself but it was great to visit Great Saltee. Saw ao many birds. Top 4: northern gannet, razorbill, puffin and common murre.

Puffin! Holding a twig, ready to fly away(wings spread)

Common murre in discussion. It seems a razorbill also wants to join in (only beak visible)

De vink kwam even schuilen voor de regen.

A bird from above. The chaffinch sits on top of two deck boards. You can see the grey head with black at the beak quite well, with copper red cheeks and breast. The black and white tail and wing feathers frame the brown back well.

A bird I often hear but seldom see is the Cetti’s warbler. Today I managed to see one. Unfortunately the photo is a bit out of focus… but it’s evidence!

The day started clouded but soon we had blue skies. Nice waddle in the local woods with birds and bees (well, actually wasps and flies)

Waddle in the woods. This Chiffchaff did not mind being photographed.

Waddle at the Groene Jonker. Lakes surrounded by fields of reed. Bluethroats were a bit shy, but saw many sedge warblers and savi’s warblers.

Absolute delighted to see and hear the Savi’s Warbler again. This time in area Waverhoek. Also many bluethroats and reed warblers.

Commuting home I visited the local woods, and brought my camera. Gorgeous bluethroat

Todays waddle was magic. It started slow and bit colder than expected, but then I spotted
My first bluethroat of the season. And this fellow was in a good singing mood, flying around. I sat down and waited, until he popped up in bush behind me singing.

Waddle in the woods. Early spring vibes. Surprise of the day was a Eurasian Goshawk.

Birding trip with daughter was fun. We had a nice waddle in area northeast of Amsterdam. We saw a lifer (and my nemesis bird): hawfinch!
We also visited Oostvaardersplassen where we saw an adult white-tailed eagle and a jack snipe (a lifer for my daughter).

#Birds #Featherverse #BirdsOfFediverse #BirdsOfMastodon

The birding cabin was crowded with people searching the reeds. One local pointed out where to find a Jack snipe. Or at least he tried. "You will see an upside V" .... of reed in the middle of reed field... 🤣
But after 15 minutes we spotted the bird!

IT is almost impossible to leave the area of Oostvaardersplassen without seeing a white-tailed eagle. It started to look like I would go empty handed. But in the end I saw one circling in the distance
