Note:
  • Countings by Henk-Jan Hof & Michel Klemann.
Local birds and other specialities:
  • The waterlevel of the river and the canal is still very low.
  • At the other side of the river, more than a thousand Greylag Geese were present, with in between at least one Barnacle Goose and already 36 White-fronted Geese. When in the Rammelwaard the Greylags suddenly flew away, also a group of six White Storks started to fly and two Spoonbills followed the large group of Geese.
