In between appointments

Common Starling looking like a Christmas Package …..

Yesterday I had several appointments in the middle of the country. Of course I brought my camera equipment, hoping to do some shooting in between. Traffic however took up most of my spare moments, but still I was able to shoot some Starlings (Spreeuw) and some White Wagtails (Witte Kwikstaart). Also a Buzzard flew by briefly… And that was it for the day ;-)

Warbler’s day

Common Grashopper Warbler | Sprinkhaanzanger

Today promised to be (or at least start) sunny. So early morning I went to a place called “De Groene Jonker” to see if I could find some nice waterfowl. Alas there was a lot around, but all far away. However, I was lucky in some other respect: several times I already have heard the sound of Sevi’s Warbler (Snor), but sofar never managed to see one. This time however I saw one and could also take some shots! Also I improved on the Grashopper Warbler (Sprinkhaanzanger). When finally driving of to a business meeting, beside the road I found some Barn Swallows (Boerenzwaluw) and of course had to stop and take some shots. Risking a late arrival, but hey… ;-)
