For me, today was the first day with more than one YBW, with a total of four birds. Two of them were very cooperative: these birds can really transform a dull day into one with colour!
@davybosman Last year I did the monitoring of a population near Lund, southern-Sweden. A male like this wouldn't stand out in this population, where I think 5-10 males (of the 80+) had a similar forehead patch or even larger. I can send you some pics if you are interested.
Great morning on the patch yesterday, with this Mealy Redpoll and a White-tailed Eagle (@Recordshotmyars); only my second self-found ever on Texel. With the arrival of a female Marsh Harrier, the total now stands on 101 species for the year! @PatchBirding #dpwc2024
Boom! 2cy Glaucous Gull on the #dpwc24 patch today! Also ad YLG, 3 RN Grebes, BT Diver and some regulars bringing the total to 51 species for the year. @dutchbirding @PatchBirding
My first round of the year for the #dpwc2024 on my local patch in Groningen provided 48 species, with 2 Mealy Redpolls as the highlight (apologies for the pic!). Also the first winter sighting of European Stonechat. @dutchbirding @PatchBirding
First day of #DPWC24, managed 42 sp before the rain. Highlights being Barn Owl (last night), Yellowhammer, 19 Velvet Scoters, 5 Water Pipits, 3 Pochards and this German hybrid Caspian x Herring Gull!
Birding on the patch #Ouderkerkerplas today and yesterday with some highlights like Smew, Tundra Bean Goose, Hen Harrier, Common Redpoll and Woodcock. #DPWC24 @PatchBirding @dutchbirding
Today was my first opportunity to bird on my patch (Koornwaard and Kanaalpark, Den Bosch, Netherlands) for the #dpwc2024. The main target was the young Penduline Tit found last year. Other highlights include a couple of Cetti's warblers, Firecrest, Bullfinch and Goshawk.
Yesterday's highlight was a hybrid Barnacle Goose x Tundra Bean Goose, with only 7 documented sightings in the Netherlands! In Westerwolde, eastern Groningen, where Bean Geese numbers never disappoint. With @WeverRik and @KoenStork. Watch the typical bill pattern of Tundra Bean.
Some coburni Redwings on Texel today in atrocious weather conditions.
A birding session on Schiermonnikoog, with finally some calm weather, resulted in this very welcome Pallid Swift! With the wind coming from the South for the rest of the weekend, can we expect to see more birds?
Comparison between last year and this year. Not only lower numbers this year, but also relatively more birds inland. Low numbers in the coastal region likely caused by an almost complete absence of easterlies his autumn so far, with the forecast not looking very promising either.
After spending last weekend on Schiermonnikoog without seeing a YBW, this beauty was a very welcome one during a brief Monday-afternoon walk in the city of Groningen!
Spring is slowly but surely getting on at Texel with territorial juv Goshawks, displaying Siskin and the first Pied Wagtail. Also a Rook (right, classic scarce early spring migrant here) and a hybrid Hooded x Carrion Crow (left) together.
