In a place called the “Zwillbrocker Venn” (Germany) there’s a group of breeding Chilean Flamingos. Originating from escaped birds, it’s now a free living and breeding population. They usually spend the winters in The Netherlands […]

Return to the Remiz
The first photo session of the year was okay, but I had some issues to deal with as you can read here. So, normally, I would go back for a 2nd, 3rd of even 4th […]
The Sadist Plover
When I see Grey Plovers, I simply have to shoot them. No matter what. Or? While I was shooting Herons in Florida, I noticed a Grey (or Black-bellied) Plover at the beach. As I already […]
2020 Remiz Pendulinus
The year 2020 started for me with a heavy cold. After spending some days in and around bed I was in desperate need for some oxygen though. So I decided to take a little drive […]
Wilson’s Plover
A plover with a long, heavy and thick bill: Wilson’s Plover. Easy to recognise and doable when it comes to photographing it. Not really shy, but a bit alert in my experience. I saw quite […]

YCNH #1,2 and 3
For some unclear reason I had never seen a Yellow-crowned Night-heron. This year however, I found three, at different locations. The first was a young bird, that I noticed due to some road construction, which […]
Little, Blue and sometimes White
Little Blue Herons are pretty common in Florida, and indeed (sort of) blue. The juvenile birds however are white. But, young or adult: they’re both pretty small, as you can tell from the image where […]
Florida Vacationer
The first time I have seen a Piping Plover was in Florida. The bird was banded, and after some research I found out where it came from and wrote a blog about it. This year, […]
White on White
During my stay in Saint Petersburg (Florida) I had many photo-ops for Snowy Egrets. In the end, I was most happy with the images that I made when the sun had just disappeared behind the […]
Owls @ Sunset
Of course, while in the US, I had to go and look for Burrowing Owls. Over the years my most beloved American species. An easy one this time, since two years ago I had found […]
