Woodpecker, reed buntings, wren and plants

This August 2018 video is about the Amsterdamse Waterleidingduinen.

18 March 2012.

After we went to the sea through the Amsterdamse Waterleidingduinen nature reserve, we returned.

We pass a bunker in the dunes. During the nazi occupation, it was used by Hitler’s Wehrmacht. Now, by wintering bats.

A bit further, a dunnock singing on the top of a bush.

Near a canal, a pied wagtail.

A magpie on the footpath.

On the footpath, five male reed buntings and a female search for food.

Near the exit of the reserve, an old Calvatia utriformis fungus.
