Local birds and other specialities:
  • The storm this weekend has broken lots of branches from the trees. The waterlevel of the river is rising and the first meadows are flooded. Large groups of Black-headed Gulls, Lapwings, three White Storks and hundreds of starlings were feeding on the edges of these flooded meadows. 
  • Local birds: Bullfinch, Coal Tits, Sparrowhawk, Buzzard, Gadwalls, Water Pipit and a Peregrine. The last one was sitting on the powerline near the river, 600 meters SW from my countingpoint.
