There are plenty of birds in the low lands...even though the Netherlands are the most crowded country in Europe one can stop seeing birds at every corner. some like water (this is where they live and catch their food), others fly around (and sometimes even inside our flat like the loud green parakeets), another just sing, sit on the tree and enjoy their freedom.
- Green Parakeet (in French "Conure Verte")
- Great Crested Grebe ( in German "Haubentaucher", FR: "Grèbe huppé", in NL: "Fuut", in BG. "Голям гмурец");
- (male) Pheasant (in German "Fasan", in FR "Faisan", in BG "див фазан");
- Grey heron (in German "Graureiher", in FR "heron", in BG "Сива чапла");
- Great spotted woodpecker (in German "Buntspecht", in FR "Pic épeiche", in BG "пъстър кълвач");
All birds in this entry I have encountered from my balcony, in my street or in the near-by park where I go jogging:-))
Good pictures, we are so lucky that Holland has so many birds in the wild that we can enjoy. At first I thought these were all taken in your garden.

Looks like that Grebe caught some lunch! It would be so spectacular to see vivid parakeets flying about.
ReplyDeleteHello Jana,
ReplyDeleteWonderful to see all these birds. Th grebe with the fish in his beak is a great moment in your shot.

ReplyDeletewow, i don't think i have ever seen a pheasant here, that sure looks so beautiful, and the rest of the birds too.
ReplyDeleteprachtige foto's en dan zo dichtbij huis genomen. Fijn weekend, Dietmut
ReplyDeleteThose who just sing, sit on the tree and enjoy their freedom must be celebrity.
ReplyDeleteWe also have Great Crested Grebe in Australia! Amazing that it is in two countries that are so different!!
